Padded but unwieldy [Posted on 2007-02-26]
The case is well-padded, but bulky and a bit loose fitting for a Canon A610. Its size makes using the belt loop impractical, it's just too big. The four interior compartments are a bit excessive; other than a camera pouch there only needs to be one other pocket to hold batteries, a lens cloth, and an SD card. This thing's just so boxy that you can only really carry it as a full-blown tourist with a strap around your neck, or packed into some check-on luggage. It'll undoubtedly withstand tall drops and poor baggage handlers, along with wet weather thanks to its nylon cover, but it's overkill for most typical camera environments. Removing the camera from the case is also annoying because of the long zipper path; likely you'll end up with camera in hand most of the time, lest the zipper cause a missed photo opportunity. This seems like a fine case for the ultimate camera protection, but for most casual photographers too much of a hassle for routine use.
great camera bag [Posted on 2007-05-07]
Perfect fit for Canon A540 camera. Especially liked the interior being so soft-protects LCD from scratches and has a place to keep spare memeory cards an a download cable. All-in all one of my best online purchases.
No it does NOT fit like a glove [Posted on 2007-05-10]
I don't know what people are thinking. A glove contours exactly to the shape, and the 10AW certainly does not do this. I have a Canon A640, and you could fit the A640 AND a SD100 side by side; I know because I put both in there. Not that I would like to carry it that way, but you could.
Or, you can fit the A640 plus TWENTY-TWO AA batteries! Maybe a few more on top of the camera. So it's not a glove, but a huge oversized mitten. It's big and bulky. The Apex 30AW fits the A640 like a glove.
OK for the product itself:
Pros:
Simple Design
Two-way zipper (Apex 30AW only zippers one direction)
Double-velcro belt loop
Cons:
No separate velcro flap for battery and accessory slot. If you flip it over, everything falls out.
Bulky- too much wasted space
Overall it's a nice bag. Just not as small as I would have liked.
Great all around [Posted on 2007-06-14]
I recommend this bag for anyone wanting protection and versatility. It fits extra items such as some cash and dl and debit card easily so on a small excursion, I don't need to carry anything else. Perfect fit for my slightly odd shaped Cannon too.
Handy Camera Bag [Posted on 2007-07-16]
This bag is a necessity when traveling with your camera. I own a Canon A620, and it fits snugly in this carrying case. There's just enough room left to store a case of 4 batteries, though it's a tad on the tight side. A nice little pouch is included to hold an extra memory card, useful for those who travel with more than one. My only gripe with this bag is that the neck strap is not quite long enough. It would be great if it were a foot or more longer, making it easier for me to wear it across my torso, rather than simply hanging it over my shoulder.
