Can I keep a Lumiz FZ200's original lens cap &amp; shoulder strap + MC protector lens while using the MegaGear "Ever Ready" over it (enough room)? Thanks

Yes. It fits comfortably with the lens cap, a clear filter as a lens protection and the sun shield. The shield has to be turned to the non-extended position to close the cover.

Go to a good camera store and try out a few different models. I like a case that slides onto my belt, has some padding or cushioning, and a pocket for an extra battery, an extra SD card, and a cleaning kit. If a case is too tight, and the lens accidentally opens inside the case, the lens drive can be damaged. A loose fitting case with padding and cushioning is the safest.

It depends how you want it to rest in case. If you wanna the body of the camera down and the lense to point up, it'll probably be a tight fit. The inside has Velcro dividers that can be adjusted so if you'd like to put it in the long way with the lense pointing left you or right you should be fine. I have my Lumix GH4 with a 14-40 lense and I can fit it in just fine with room for chargers and battery packs. Overall I love the bag. Lots of pockets on the side and in front to store other things. I even keep my Tascam in a case in the inside slots with my camera itself. Totally worth the money.

When I want to carry my G16 in a pocket, I take the case off. Usually I have a gear bag or back pack the camera goes into along with a travel tripod. You cant beat the case for ultimate protection!

I got the Megagear case for LX7. Sounds like some people received a case designed for theprevious Lumix LX5 model, as the lens was smaller and those cases don't fit the LX7.

I keep a couple of lenses in my bag. I keep a Tamron 24-70 2.8 on my camera nearly on all the time and it fits in the middle very nicely. I've posted a couple images with a ruler so you get a sense of size and capacity. Overall, I like the bag. However, it is not much good shifting it to the right shoulder. I wished there was a more universal solution. Left shoulder only! http://imgur.com/enE5F05 http://imgur.com/7FGRmKP Good luck!

On e*b*a*y search gf1 leather case. There is one that fits on your belt with the 20mm lens. Looks interesting.

A camera TZ5 with a broken lens caps sits in Best Buy Saratoga, NY display case right now. Evidently this is an issue that needs attention before the next model comes out along with the weight. I would definitely consider a good protection agreement.

not without an adapterwhy get a lighter body and still haul around heavy lenses? I now carry 2 e-m5 with a 3rd lens in my bag, I am ready for anything, with less weight than I was carrying with just one body and the bigger heavier lens.

There is an adapter ring that screws on to the lens. The actual hood then bayonets onto that ring. Un-bayonet the hood, invert it and it fits over the lens for storage. Yes, your lens cap will still fit on the lens.

You will be in the limit, maybe too tight. I have a Sony Alpha 500 and 16-80 Zeiss lens, total height 190, but, you need to leave room for the camera strap, 210mm height is actually close to where the cover bends to close the Ape case. My concern would be how wide is your camera.

Hey frank m. This works great with a DMC fz200. I did a couple time lapses with it so far here's one at Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/73182089. It is also great for long exposures and shutter control for self portraits and anything else you can think up.M

No, not with the lens and flash attached if you want to close the bag completely. You can place the lens on the side of the camera inside the bag.. Maybe not the flash too. But you can still zip up the bag with the flash on the camera... It will look bulky.

Looking at the shape of the DMC-G5 it looks like the snout is smaller than the FZ200 therefore I don't think the case would be a good fit. You can check to see if they make one specifically for the G5. BTW, I don't really recommend this case. very difficult to mount on tripod and case gets in the way of operating camera. Had I kept the shipping papers, I would have returned it.

I have a 7D (and formerly a 50D) with a 70-200 f/2.8L II IS mounted to it in the center of the pack and there's still room for a 24-105 at the bottom. When the pack is laying flat the body/lens is sitting base down, and the extra lens is sitting on its lens cap. Maybe that's what the other reviewer meant? I just have to rotate the tripod ring 180 degrees so the foot is on the top of the lens when stored in the bag. You MIGHT squeeze a 60D with grip in there like that. I leave Manfrotto Rapid Connect plates on each of my bodies (and the tripod ring of the 70-200), which adds a little extra height to them. I tried my 5DII with grip in one of the side pockets and it is slightly too tall, even without the Manfrotto plate attached, so I leave the grip in a box in the trunk of my car until I need to attach it to the body for a shoot. I don't have a grip for the 50D which I recently upgraded with the 7D, and haven't tried the grip for the 7D to see if it will fit in the bag. I also carry a 430EXII, a 28-135 (Don't ask me why, it rarely gets used), a Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 (great lens on the crop bodies), a 50 f/1.4, an extra bodycap/rear lens cap set and a "rocket" type blower in the main compartment. There's plenty of room in the other pockets for batteries, CF cards, spare lens caps, cleaning supplies, etc. I've had mine almost two years and it is still in great shape. I've been VERY pleased with it.

I guess the answer is "possibly". But you will need to buy a case larger than you would normally need for the lens. You can reverse the hood to avoid the extra length, but the hood is still going to be substantially wider than the lens. So you need a case that won't be snug on the lens alone.

I would opt for a bigger case for the FZ200. The camera would probably fit, however it would be a tight fit and have no room for chargers etc. This case is for smaller cameras or camcorders.
