Canon DCC-90 soft case... A FRAUD!

Advantages: Nice looking, lightweight, has belt loop too
Disadvantages: Canon S5 doesn't fit at all, no extra pockets and too expensive

... Canon DCC-90 Soft Case - my review Canon DCC-90 is the official soft case for the Canon camera models S2, S3 and S5. There isn't really too much to say about this soft case but I'll do my best. I own a Canon digital camera S5 IS and since the size of this camera is quite weird (not as big as Reflex cameras but neither small enough to fit in common camera cases) I found very hard to find a proper case for it. What stopped me from buying the original case by Canon was it's price. As a matter of fact the cost is £14.55 at the lowest (on amazon.co.uk) while generally can be purchased around £17-25 everywhere else. Also I could hardly find any picture of it online and they are impossible to find in shops so I didn't really fancied spending such an amount of money for something I couldn't even see properly. I am aware that...

Canon DCC-80 Digital Camera Case

Advantages: Extra compartments for accesories
Disadvantages: Not as padded as other cases

...These days, most people own digital cameras. But not everyone owns a decent case to protect it from the knocks and bumps of everyday life. When my friend bought bought her new digital camera (a Canon Powershot A640) a case wasn't supplied, so we embarked on a mission to find a case which could keep her new bundle of joy safe. Although we found cheap cases in high street shops, none of them seemed to fit the camera as well as they should. Although we tried to find the correct case for the camera, we couldnt seem to find one anywhere. She then gave up. So, seeing as it was her birthday the following week, i decided to head home and look on the internet and get her one as an extra pressie. Within minutes of searching, i had bagged this little baby. Adbvertised at suitable for housing all cameras in the Powershot A Series (A710, A640, A...

Excellent Case for Compatible Cameras

Advantages: Designed specially for the range, durable and has every carrying option
Disadvantages: Not for non-compatible cameras

...I bought a Canon PowerShot A560 Camera and, as one was not supplied, I needed a case to protect it when I am carrying it around. I checked the Canon website and found a chart showing that the DCC-80 soft case was the one recommended for my camera. I found the DCC-80 case listed on Amazon.com for £10.99. However, on the Amazon site, it was listed as being compatible with the A710 IS, AS700, A540, A530, A520 and A510... the A560 was not listed! However, the listing on the Canon site (in the downloadable brochure), along with the fact that I know that the A550 is the same size as the A560, made me press ahead and buy the case. Amazon delivered it with their usual efficiency. What I got in the package was: - the case - a wrist strap - a shoulder strap First of all, although it was not listed on the packet, the A560 fits...

Not such a hopeless case.

Advantages: Lots of storage for various extras
Disadvantages: This storage gets filled, becoming bulky

...I bought the Tamrac 5691 with my Kodak easyshare camera, and while it didn't come as part of any package, it was very reasonably priced at around £12. I'm sure that it can be found cheaper in an online store on sale somewhere, but generally the accepted retail price, in stores and online, is around £11.99-£12.99. Looks. As far as I know, the model only comes in black, which is a perfect colour; classy, inconspicuous and hard-wearing against stains. It comes in the form of a main pouch for the camera itself, which fits various medium sized 'fun' digital cameras (i.e. not SLR), including Canon's Powershot S60 and S70, Fuji's E510 and F810 and Sony's M1 and S40. Naturally, anything smaller will also fit inside, and I still use it for my Nikon Coolpix camera, post death-of-Kodak-model. It's not such a snig fit, but it has...

Good But You Have To Pay

Advantages: Lovely Feel
Disadvantages: A Bit Pricy

...I have an Olympus case SIMILAR to this which holds the C150, C220, C350 and the C450. It has a lovely soft leather feel to it on the outside, with a very convenient pouch at the front that can contain memory cards. It is line on the inside by very nice cotton like fabric that is soft, and will protect the camera immensely well. This has been extra useful because in the past I have had cards bent due to contact with the camera so this has been extra handy. The price on Amazon (which is the only place I could find it at) is £14.99, OUCH! I hear you say. I would certainly not have payed that price for it, and probably not got it at all. I received it as part of a Christmas time deal from Amazon where it came free with the camera I purchased (the C150) It fits inside it pretty snuggly, with just a bit of leeway at the top, but...

Canon

Advantages: Good quality
Disadvantages: None

...This is a good quality product that offers good value for money in the very short term. Although as with most products of this type, the value will deteriorate over time and should be able to get a cheaper version next year. It's a great device with plenty of features that I would highly recommend. This really is a wonderful piece of kit that should go well with many accessories because it really looks good. After using this product for a few months I have not so far come up against any reliability issues but only time will tell. I therefore would recommend the product. This case was bought in Curry's for £20 Overall I would recommend this case if you want to keep your camera clean and scratch free....

A Lowepro for a digital

Advantages: Fits the camera perfectly
Disadvantages: Boringly efficient

...! A bit of searching for the right dimensions, a quick email to the company from e-bay, a quick response pointing me to one I?d missed on an auction (I wouldn?t admit this to everyone but the camera dimensions of 90 x60mm can also be 60mmx90mm!!), a ?buy it now? transaction and in two days I had my camera case ? all in price including p&p, £10. What did I get for my money? Manufacturer: Lowepro www.lowepro.com Case, called a pouch, which describes it very nicely has a ref D-Res 8S (Digital Resolution Series) Internal dimensions 100x65x40mm External material: water resistant nylon crossweave, mostly black, the zipped top in silver grey with the obligatory manufacturers logo. Internal material is a soft, lightly padded brushed nylon in grey. One full length internal pocket. Attachments: Two loops on top for the shoulder strap...

Secure care for your digital camera

Advantages: Sturdy manufacture, with excellent padding and secure straps
Disadvantages: A bit too much padding makes it bulky to carry on a belt

...Lock tab to attach the case to the chest strap of my rucksack. Inside the case is soft grey polyester padding and lining. The main compartment takes up much of the interior, but there are some handy internal pockets as well. Teh front features a pocket just the right size to fit a Li-Ion battery, and also has a reinforced clear plastic window to hold memory cards. The left side of the main compartment also has a long thin pocket that is big enough to hold up to 4 AA batteries. I use the case to hold my Kodak DX6490 digital camera and, while it is certainly a "snug" fit, it's neither too small nor too big to hold the camera, and has taken excellent care of it. I bought mine from The Digital Camera Company (http://www.digital-cameras.com/) as part of a bundle with my camera, but they sell the case on its own for a measly £13. At that...

Go Digital with Olympus for Less

Advantages: Elegantly Styled Nice to Hold Simple to Use
Disadvantages: Lacks Features

...I will write this opinion now before I loose it or break it or do something that typically happens when things are in my care! The C-1 Zoom is perhaps aimed more at the domestic or family user who will buy it to 'snap' pictures for the photo album rather than the those who will want a digital camera for presentation, professional or ultra high resolution images. Firstly the C-1 Zoom comes in a very small box and you certainly don’t get many extras. The packaging includes the camera itself, a usb lead for connection to your PC or Mac, a video lead, 8Mb Smart media card and a non-rechargeable battery which I was not impressed with! Also included is the Cmedia Suite Software CD and a Olympus driver and reference CD along with a comprehensive manual in quite a few languages. I will mention this battery again as I was...

Review of Olympus CAMEDIA C 1

Olympus µ[MJU:] 700 Digital

Advantages: Lightweight, robust, sexy looks, simple to use
Disadvantages: out of date in camera menu.

...Have owned the 700 for 6 months now and am overall very impressed. Its got all the features you need for a fun camera. 23 different "scenes" of which i only use 3 or 4 are very useful, meaning you dont have to fiddle around with different settings. Just choose the scene you are in, for instance 'nightime' and click away. The video function works well as well and as a budding golfer i have used the camera to take videos of my swing analysing it on the Olympus Master program on my laptop. The design is slick and sexy, the front panel is curved which i think is just for aesthetic reasons, but it feels nice in your palm and the weight of the camera has to be one of its main advantages. It really is the lightest camera I have ever felt of its kind and all my friends are envious of it for that reason. If I had to choose anything that...
