How does it compare with Case Logic SLRC 205? Want to go light and have a Sony a6000 with a pancake and a 16/50 OSS lenses plus water and a snack.

I've never used the 205, I can only speak from experience with the lowepro 102 aw. I'm actually planning to buy an a6000 soon and I feel This camera bag will be a great bag for it. I might only use about 2 lenses and a tripod for shooting street which is great for me. I am able to fit a few dnacks, I've never tried a water bottle but I believe it could fit in with the lenses if you're willing to risk it lol. But if you want to go light this is great

dont know other bag. This is compact enough for my t2i w. 2 lens in it and 1 speedlite in the front pocket . And i got it for less then $40 l believe that time. I guess if you dont put ur flash in the front pocket u have more room for water and snack. hope that help.

I replaced my Canon 60d and smaller Sony A55 with an Olympus E-P3. I've owned several intro/mid-level dSLRs, and I would say the E-P3 was my favorite camera of all time. My pictures were amazing, it was fast, and best of all was that it was truly portable - perfect for my hiking trips. Were you mainly using the camera in auto mode? I always used it in manual, so can't really tell you how good or bad the camera did in 'A' mode - but in manual mode it was nearly perfect. The lenses you use may also play a role. My favorite lens of all time had been (maybe still is) the Canon 24-70mm lens, and I thought I would never find something that worked just as well, but I came across the Panasonic 14-140mm lens, which is super amazing, and became my favorite and main lens for the E-P3. The lack of viewfinder was never an issue for me, since I used the VF-2 view finder by Olympus. Sure, I was never happy using the E-P3 without the viewfinder, so I kept it on most of the time. I did sell the E-P3 on Ebay soon after the OM-D was announced. I figured that if the E-P3 had become my favorite camera of all time, getting the OM-D would be a no brainer since the specs are better than the E-P3 and it included a built in viewfinder. I have used an NEX-5 (first gen) in the past, and I must say I hated that camera due to how hard it made to shoot in 'M' mode; however, Sony released the NEX-7, a nearly perfect camera targeted towards potential dSLR owners. Deciding between the NEX-7 and the OM-D is a challenge, and they each have their pluses and negatives; however, those looking to replace a dSLR for some trips, shouldn't consider anything other than the OM-D(m4/3) or NEX-7(e-mount) for the time being; although, I bet Panasonic has something in the works to compete with Sony and Olympus.

I spent many months comparing 28-300 and this 24-120 before I settle with this. I was looking for a walk around lenses for travel and family picture because I don't want my f2.8 lenses to take all the fun out of the trip as they are heavy and big. To my surprise, this 24-120 replaced my 24-70 f2.8 except for shooting sports as the AF is not as snappy as the 24-70 f2.8 and I need to shoot more frames to cherry pick the ones that are in focus. Other than sports, my copy of 24-120 f4 has taken over the job of 24-70 f2.8. I used it at weddings and senior pictures...... I am very happy with it. I got it in "brand new white box" for about half the price and that's even a greater deal. I spent many months comparing 28-300 and this 24-120 before I settle with this.

I have a sony nex-3, and I purchased this housing for it. I used it twice in on snuba trips in HI this past April. The camera was fully functional with both the pancake wide angle and the standard lens that comes with the camera. All buttons are useable underwater, and it takes nice pictures. You cannot zoom, but I think by looking at the case one realizes that is how it's set up. It seemed to fit the camera very tightly and I think would protect it at greater depths then I took it too. I'd give it 4.5 stars the only drawback being it is rather bulky, but again I think it's something you're aware of based on the picture. I have a sony nex-3, and I purchased this housing for it.

I have the Sony T10 - I got it for the design and the unlimited in video mode, but I hate the sliding lens cover. It would slide off at a small touch in your purse and ppl who helped you take pictures would put their fingers on the camera lens :P Get the Canon!

I recently purchased a Case Logic #DCB303. My P7800 fits inside perfectly, not too tight so I can remove and reinsert the camera without popping the lens cap off as I experienced with some of the other small bags I sampled. The camera fits with the standard strap attached as well. In addition to the camera, in the main compartment I can also store my 40.5mm CPL (in its protective case). The bag has two side pockets where I can also store an extra EN-EL14 battery on one side, and SD Cards and a cleaning cloth in the other. It also has a grab handle, belt loop and removable shoulder strap. Perfect for tossing into my work/travel backpack and the camera is well protected. So far this is the best solution for my activities with the P7800. You can Google "DCB303" for images and exact specifications.

I have the same thing. It fits. It doesnt fit perfect but it fits. I put the extra lens on the bottom and the camera on top. I really like this case for hiking its very light and if i drop the camera or get the case wet im not worried as it protects it pretty good.

I have the DMC-ZS20, and I've found it to be fully suitable for my needs. Has a fully manual option, as well as aperture and shutter priorities, and the automatic mode works great too. Also has a suite of built in shooting "scenes", one of which is specifically for underwater. This mode has my pictures from dives already looking decently colorful even before doing any correction. It is still just a point and shoot, so it doesn't have the largest sensor and can struggle in low light, but for amateur underwater photography I've found it to be an awesome camera/case combo.

i keep camera in the case logic case in my pocket 90% of the time. the rest of the time, it sits in my pocket and I haven't had a dust problem-- lens has retracted and it is covered anyway.

The case has a pocket on top for the camera without lense and then lenses can be placed in the main body of the bag. I have put the camera in the main body rearranging things with a lens up to 300mm I think and then put my either regular lens in the top pocket or my wide angle. We actually have two of these bags because they are so light, so great to carry and we can get both our equipment in the two. We have two canon 5d's with L lens in wide angle, mid range to 105, zoom 100-33 and zoom 70-200. Hope this helps. I have been happy. We had these huge backpacks and I usually take them and leave in car with part of the excess equipment--chargers, extra filters, etc. Just use the slings for portable shooting and if I take a tripod I have to carry it separately. There is not as much padding as my expensive backpacks, but we just cannot hike with those. They are too heavy.

I have the Extra Small and it works really well in the medium commuter. It has room for a Canon SL1 with 18-55 or 55-250 attached, plus two additional small to medium lenses (even a 17-55 f2.8). with that, there is lots of room left in the main bag for other items, and the extra small also works well in my backpack, so I can easily move my camera gear between non-camera bags.

I bought the Canon hardcase. Not very expensive, and very elegant. The whole camera/case set-up is very Leica-like.

sorry, i don't have the case anymore, i gave it away. I had a small olympus elite camera and that case was too small. I ended up getting a nice sturdy case from Best Buy that was relatively iinexpensive. Hope this helps.................Catherine

the internal dimensions of the case at 8.5 inches (Long) by 8 inches (Wide) by 6.5 inches (Deep). While I do not have a Sony 7ii, I think it will fit. The case has two internal dividers attached by velcro. These can be removed if you want. With them in, I keep my a6000 with the kit lens (16-55) in the central compartment, the 50-210 lens fits vertically in one of the side compartments with room to spare, and the third compartment is more than enough for spare batteries, charger etc.Another way to be sure is to go to the Sony web site and see if they recommend this case for the camera in question. the internal dimensions of the case at 8.5 inches (Long) by 8 inches (Wide) by 6.5 inches (Deep).

Not apples to apples. L lenses are designed for serious photographers who understand that they will need 4 or more lenses. That is why they have such a short range. The 15-85 is wider and still has twice the zoom. I would rather have one lens that is very good quality, that a bag full of pro lenses sitting at home. In other words, in my opinion, the 15-85 is one of the best walk around lenses out there (and I have gone through a bunch.) If you are a pixel peeper and have no regard for money, go with a couple of L lenses. Also look at the 24-105mm L. That is more of fair comparison. Value wise the 15-85 is hard to beat.

I'm kind of in the same situation Hamlet. They both look great, and I can't decide which one to pull the trigger on. I have a Canon XTi DSLR that I use and love but I want something smaller for travel and one of these seems to fit the bill. Did you make a choice yet? If you have what one did you pick up? I'm also looking at the Sony HX5V.

I think that the previous answer gives all the important dimensional info. I consider this to be a great case for the money. I use it for my P510. I carry the camera, battery charger, manuals, 2 spare batteries, and a "mini tripod. Still some room left... I could probably fit in a spare lens... but I bought the P510 so I wouldn't have to lug another lens around.
