canon EH!&L SemiHard Case for 20D [Posted on 2006-03-20]
It's better than ok, will protect the camera with a short lens avoiding carrying a larger bag for short shooting sessions. It is NOT cowhide and will NOT accomodate a large telephoto. I carry it in my backpack. It's easy to use and user friendly. If you do NOT want to carry a larger camera bag and have the standard lens, it works better than many cases. It has snaps and velcro holding it together. Most of all it protects the camera and lens.
EOS 20 Soft Case [Posted on 2006-07-27]
Was looking for something to use when I didn't want to carry all the other stuff in a hard case. This works just fine when all you need is camera & 1 lense. Not fancy but it does the job
A cover- not a case [Posted on 2006-08-25]
I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this case, despite quality construction, is awkward to squeeze my Canon 20D into and offers no real protection from the elements. If it were $10 I wouldn't complain, but I just bought the Tamrac 5684 Digital SLR camera case for $10 LESS and that action has a badillion pockets and seals my SLR away in a shock absorbent foam vault. I'm about to return the case/cover above right now.
Good case but... [Posted on 2007-06-27]
The case is nice and give great protection to the camera. However, everytime when you need to take out the battery or the memory card, you have to remove the case completely including screwing the lock in the bottom of the camera. Otherwise, a good case.
Does a good job!!!!! [Posted on 2008-04-08]
This case does a good job of protecting your camera on trips where taking your regular camera bag is unnecessary or impracticle. It snuggly covers the camera. With a 17-85 IS lens it is very tight, but fits with the lens hood reversed over the barrel in the 'stowed' position.
I got it to travel. I put my camera in my travel bag; the foot print is small. Last year when I went to Europe I took my camera backpack and never used any of the extra equipment I took.
This case will only marginally protect your camera from rain; there are openings on each side where water can get in. If you want water proof protection this case will not do it, nor was it ever intended to.
Any lens longer (dimensionally) than a 17-85 will not fit.
It's expensive, but so is my 30D. This will provide the added protection I need while traveling.
The part of the case that fits on the camera body must be removed for battery and CF change (so not that often given battery is good for 500+ pictures and a 2 GB CF is good for 500 pictures at maximum jpeg); otherwise removal isn't necessary for any other reason. Removal is via one screw. The near flush screw is difficult to grip and turn although it does have a slot where a U.S. Quarter will fit....in my opinion the screw could have been designed better.
The part of the case that covers the bulk of the camera snaps off quickly for agile picture taking.
For me; this case is exactly what I wanted for overseas via airline trips.
