Sony Camera Case - cybershot, digital camera case
If you have a Sony Cybershot digital camera, you should get this case to protect it. I bought 3 different cases for my new WSC-290 because I could't find the right one, and then I came across this. It is better than the LCS-CST soft carrying case because it has a zipper that encloses your camera all the way. If you drop it accidentally in water, there's a good chance you can prevent water from getting inside the case compared to the Velcro lock of the LCS-CST soft carrying case. I also bought the Sony LCS-TWE soft carrying case with carabineer (available in different colors) but it only looks cute, not sturdy.
This also has a front pocket and a strap in the back that can be attached to your belt or bag if you get tired of holding it. Sony LCSCSQ Soft Carrying Case for Sony T, W, and N Series Digital Cameras (Black)
I wanted a case that just BARELY fit my HX5v so that it wouldn't add significant bulk, but would protect the camera from bumps and maybe have enough space for a spare battery/memory card.
This is the case for that. I can BARELY fit a spare battery in the external "pocket", and it would be plenty secure. The camera fits nice/fine inside. If I didn't put an extra battery outside, I could fit 2-3 memory cards in their protective cases in the external pocket. Otherwise, a couple of them will fit in with the camera.
I'm very happy with this purchase - exactly what I wanted.
It has:
- JUST enough room for HX5v
- Tiny external pocket
- Belt loop to attach it to your belt
I purchased this case to protect my new Sony Cybershot W150. It's a compact designed case and the camera fits nicely inside. However, the smaller compartment does not comfortably hold accessories, namely the battery case for the camera (it fits in the compartment but appears to stretch the case slightly). On top of that, this camera case does not come with a shoulder strap or clips to attach a shoulder strap; it's meant to be placed on your belt. It's good for protecting a compact cybershot camera, but if you prefer a case with a shoulder strap you'd be better off looking at a different case.
bought this for my DSW-150 the fit is great the protection is also great, someone made an issue about it not having a shoulder strap, mine did not come with any as well, for me that was not in issue, for security reasons, i carry mine in a bag or in my pocket. the case in not that big, there is room for the camera, there is a small pocket in front for a memory card, i can also carry the card reader in the pocket. Again this is a great buy, it has its purpose, if you need a bigger case, this is not for you, if you want a case that will provide you with adequate protection without the bulk, there is none better as a choice.
I wanted a small case to go with my tiny new Sony TX7 so I bought this. This case has a nice quality look and feel to it, and the inexpensive price is nice. The TX7 is so small I actually would have liked the case to be slightly smaller - the TX7 sits fairly loose inside the case but is protected nicely. There's a pocket that looks like it could hold a battery and/or memory card/s. I do have one negative thing to say about this case and that is the zipper... If you're like me and treat your electronics lightly you'll want to be careful whenever taking the camera out so you do not slide your nice big touch screen across the metal zipper. If I would have thought about this before I would have instead bought the Sony LCS-CST which flips open with velcro. It is a minor flaw on an otherwise nice case.
The case was supplied for a Sony DSC-HX5. However it is much too deep. The camera is shirt pocket size but once in the case it becomes really bulky. It bounces around in the case and you can almost fit another camera in with it. I will need to look for a new case. As I am overseas it is not worth returning it and will write this off as a bad purchase. They should not recommend a generic sony case which is too big for the camera.
I hesitated a bit before I ordered, since most reviewers were based on HX5V which is a little smaller than the new HX9V. But luckily the case FITS, with barely any room left. It is not yet too difficult to get the camera in and out of the case. So I consider this a good fit. The only sacrifice you have to make is that now the outer pocket cannot take anything. But I do not plan on leaving my two NP-BG1 batteries and SD card (all in plastic cases) there in the first place.
For smaller cameras (HX7V, 5V, etc), I assume the outer pocket would be less of an issue for storing such items. But I do not think it's big enough for 2 batteries, so I am loosing nothing here.
All in all, satisfied.
Nice material, good stitching, almost waterproof, I gave it 4 out of 5 in because of one attribute which got 4/5 [Storage Capacity... details below].
The only problems I have with it are:
1) the space it has in the front pocket that could have been just a bit bigger to fit my extra battery and it's plastic casing a bit better;
2) the way you attach it to your belt could have been done a bit better, because if you're going to go on a roller coaster, I wouldn't recommend keeping it strapped to your belt :).
But I would gladly recommend this to anyone buying a Sony-H55 for how tight and nice it keeps the camera inside. - Digital Camera Case - Cybershot - Sony - Camera Case'
