Camera case for a Panasonic Lumix TZ5? I'm currently awaiting delivery on a Panasonic Lumix TZ5. Can someone recommend a camera case please? I want something just big enough to hold the camera itself, an extra memory card, and maybe an extra battery.I have a few larger cases at home that I can store all of the extra accessories in. This case will just be for when I'm on the go, so I'd like it to be small and easy to carry. Thanks for any recommendation. :) Camera case for a Panasonic Lumix TZ5?

I am using the Lowepro Rezo 50 which is a really nice case for 15 bucks at BB. Camera fits really nice with nice compartments.

Please read my previous post, Rezo 30 has nice fabric belt clip with velcro plus for safety its buttoned down. Sells for $14 at Fry's or $15 at Best Buy.

I am using Lowepro Rezo 30 w/ TZ and it fits nice and snug, meaning it can be put in and removed effortlessly. It is also suggested by Amazon, but some reviewers feel its too snug. Best part of Rezo Series is that it has a nice velcro style belt clip plus a safety button and plenty of pockets. I passed on Ridge series due to absence of the velcro type belt clip, instead it has belt loop! Keep the camera switch in play mode when storing, so if you accidentally touch power switch, the lens doesn't expand!

Case Logic makes a snug case for this camera. The bar code number is 85854 01826. Above the barcode is 06/07/s. The main comparment zips. The smaller, outer compartment easily holds two batteries and a credit card and it also zips. It rides nice on my belt, is rugged but not waterproof. The inside main compartment will hold the camera inside a ziplock bag. I've used this in downpours in Greece and wet zodiac landings in the Galapogas and and the camera has stayed dry. I should try it with the batteries too. Brad Gough

Somewhere on the review page for Panasonic DMC TZ5, it was mentioned that Lowepro Napoli 30 would fit this camera. If somebody is using this case for TZ5, could you please confirm that this is indeed the case.

I bought the medium size "Sherpa" edition Swiss Army camera case. Fits perfectly, space for memory and battery, and nice look to it.

Thanks for the recommendation Bryan. I'm not too fond of the clasp on that one, since I often forget to fasten them. I'll put this one on my list to check out though.

Tamrac Digital 1 (item no. 5691) is a perfect fit, plus it has a pocket compartment for extra flash cards, etc. It's available right here on Amazon as well as many other placesTamrac 5691 Digital 1 Camera Bag (Black)When I say it fits the TZ5 perfectly, I mean it is a snug fit, but just loose enough for the camera to go in and out easily. I would call this case too bulky to put on my belt, but with the shoulder strap it is very compact and unobtrusive.

I'm glad to hear you like it. I just ordered mine last night.I noticed the leather case on the Canon site is not the same as the one listed aT AMAZON. Did you order a case? If so, how did it fit?

Like everything else about this camera, the case is a compromise. Yes, the camera barely fits and yes, the lens may accidentally deploy or the lens cap pop off, while you are struggling to get the camera in. Canon doesn't directly list this case as an accessory:http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid;=144&mode;lid=15207#SNAModelSuppliesActYet one observer pointed out it shows up in an accessory kit listing applicability to the S5IS: http://estore.usa.canon.com/Specification.asp?ITEM_ID=35571So Canon has dropped the ball here, by not providing a "made for" case and letting the customer guess at it, while Canon gets to sell loads of its "not quite right" PSC -75's Like everything else about this camera, the case is a compromise.

Thanks again. I'll be deciding by the end of the week, because I'll have to return the Canon by Saturday! Another thing re: the Panasonic is that you can attach certain lenses to it to extend the zoom and possibly some other stuff. I like that Idea. I love cameras with big wide lenses on them!Take care, and thanks for your thoughts.

Amazon emailed me to answer this question. If that is the same as this: Case Logic UNZB-2 Compact Camera Case (Black) then, I had a black version of this, and it just about fit a standard deck of 52 playing cards. It also fit a Panasonic Lumix DMC-S3 and I expect it to fit my coming Panasonic Lumix FH6. The link I gave has many more picture reviews that might help you with many cameras in the bag.

Their is little room in the case for anything but the camera. Also the side is partially open so a small item would fall out. Have travelled extensively with the camera in the case and think its a perfect travel case. The battery lasts longer than expected but I do carry an extra one in my travel pouch bag.

I bought the standard size to fit my nikon 5100. I googled the size comparison and it states the panasonic is smaller. I am able to fit a standard zoom of 18-55 no problem. If it were me i would go with the standard for the simple fact you will have more room for a zoom if your camera is on the smaller side. Good thing is Amazon will return hassle free if you are not happy with it. As far as apecase goes, its a great bag. Very sturdy and make sure yours comes with a rain cover. Hope this helped somewhat. Happy shooting !!!

I'd also like to know the answer to this! Just ordered an SD1200IS and would like to order a case that fits. I've had trouble with Canon cases in the past also. Sure would like to have one that's made for the 1200 though, so hopefully someone knows the answer to this....

Thanks, I thought so. A friend of mine ordered a pkg deal from eBay and it didn't come with the charger. I guess she got ripped off with that. She ended up having to go out and buy one.One more question... I've been looking on here to find the best memory card for the camera without paying too much money for an actual Panasonic one. Is the Transcend memory card compatible? (The Transcend 16GB SDHC memory card with USB plug-in). I've read mixed reviews about which ones work or don't work.Thanks in advance & thanks for the previous response.

Nikon reportedly makes a case for this camera but my order for it has been on back order for almost a month. I have not been able to find another case that fits well, given the shape of the camera.

I ended up taking my camera to the local Best Buy and physically trying various cases until I found one that fit.I ended up getting a Lowepro Edit 110 Camcorder Bag which does the job adequately.It fits alright and has some extra compartments to store batteries and stuff.

I bought a tamrac brand case. You should be able to find a case in a well-stocked camera store. Take your camera along. My case has a small zipper compartment for an extra battery or two and SD camera cards. It has served me well on several international trips as well as "around the house."

Hi JAF, This case is an excellent product in my opinion. I have one GoPro Hero 3 and several accessories and it has made carrying them easier and much more accesible. I am a filmmaker and really appreciate products that help me organize my gear and keep it protected, and the POV case does that well for me. If you have few accessories and do not plan on purchasing more, I would say look at the small version of this case. However, if you plan to buy more accessories (like me) then go for this case! I hope this answers your questions!

Mine did not come with a case. I didn't see any that did. I just put mine in the zipper pocket of my camera case.

I am using a LowePro Z10, which is an excellent fit and offers a lot of protection. Also, it has a pouch in the front for carrying an extra memory card or something else that is not too large. Mine is yellow (discontinued color) and black and is quite beautiful. Lowepro Camera Bag (Z-10 NAVY)
