The best thing that I can recommend is to take it to a store (best buy or a camera shop) and try it out. I have purchased camera bags on recommendation and never been satisfied, but just bringing to the store I got the perfect bag for me.

I just bought the Rocky Mountain Black Mint 507 camera bag for my FujiFilm S8000fd and am very pleased with it. The bag is small, but it has a few pockets and some extra space in the main compartment for spare batteries and an extra memory card or two--maybe car keys as well. It is a bit pricy as camera bags go, but is probably worth it because of the high quality and functionality.

Thanks. I bought a Body Glove case at Walmart because I needed one right away for a trip. It has lots of pockets, so I thought it might work, but it needs to be just a tad larger. I need to use it a few more times so I can feel like it wasn't a waste and then I may look into your recommendation.

I am not that knowledgeable about all the different cameras. I have a Sony 350 Camera with a good size lens in it and it fills the bag. There are three zipper pockets on the outside of the bag but I don't think you can fit much in them. I use them for my car keys, I.D. and a little cash when I am out taking pictures.

You should have went with your original pic.All you get here is a bunch of canon ads.Any camera mentioned turns into buy canon.Ive been a pro for over 40 years.I use Nikon. Canons are about the same.In point and shoot Its a different game.Just a word of caution. Protect the lens.When not in use KEEP IT IN A CASE!Putting it your purse or pocket will let dirt into the lens.That's why everyone says my lens stopped working after a few months.You bought the inferior camera.Sorry

Thank you. I have been on the "list" at our camera shop since Christmas waiting for a case. I decided it has been long enough. I will order this one. I appreciate your information.

I carry 2 64GB cards for my D5100. I use a single card for a shoot and move them as soon as practical onto a more stable platform (backed up). Then I return the card to my cycle. This lets me shoot as much as I want without fear of running out of space. I also shoot jpg & raw. They are so cheap (I saw them for $15.99 the other day) that I cannot see a reason not to use them. The other people fearing about loss of the pictures are right though, do not store your pictures on here. Move them as soon as possible.

I can't answer regarding the fit to your particular camera but I know from experience you need extra room to have enough "slack" in the plastic to operate the controls. I have had "bags" before so I knew that a bag is a make shift idea requiring patience and attention. If you are serious about "wet" photography, spend the money for a water proof camera or housing. I just wanted something to last on a one week trip and was willing to deal with hard to operate controls. If you pay careful attention to sealing the bag and get prepared before needing to take a picture, it will work OK. I was happy with it but it was a chore to use.

Thanks so much for the response. After much research, I know I want this camera. What a great deal, I'll order mine tonight!

Islandgolfer: I was able to fit in my Nikon D90 with a 55-300 lens attached to the camera. The LCD was facing the opening of the bag.Along with that I still had room for an extra lens, my filters and macro lens attachments and a panasonic camcorder with minor space left for lens hoods. This all fit in the main compartment. I did a video review of it and posted it here on product review and also on youtube, which is higher quality. Skip to about 1:40 to see the camera with the lens attached and how it fit.www youtube com/watch?v=rRwGLYUBwHE

That is a bigger bag than you think. Not separately. I actually returned this bag because it was bigger than I was expecting. I have gotten away from slr cameras. For day use it I think it would be ok.

My first SLR I did buy a bag. Then when I got my D20 I decided that I didn't need to lug all my accessories around with me. I would refer to H. Stevens comments for solutions. What I use now for my Canon is a well made cushioned backpack.

I have DSC-HX20V and fits in this carrying case. But practically, it is tight and I always fear that it will damage the camera (lens). So even though I have purchased, I never used it. Instead i am using this carrying case for putting other stuffs (phone, accessories, etc ) while traveling and I am using my DSLR carrying bag. The case should have little wider opening to let camera go in smoothly without touching. DSC-H90 is little smaller in size than HX-20V so I believe it will fit in but you need to be careful while putting into the bag. Other than that, this carrying bag is very good made of good material with enough space for putting memory card, extra battery, etc Hope this helps I have DSC-HX20V and fits in this carrying case.

Your right about ruggedness, but you also want to protect this excellent camera. I bought a generic bag that fit on my belt. Its small and goes in tackle box, backpack, where ever . gives you some protection. And I put lines cloth on lenses when packing. Have fun.

I keep the camera with the standard lens in the side compartment with the lens inside and the back of te camera facing up when you open the compartment. I has two slim compartments on either side of the lense that I keep the battery charger in. There's also a compartment on the top front of the bag that can keep some stuff as well. A lens or two depending on their size. There's a slim zipper compartment on the front that can hold memory cards, money, keys, & stuff like that. They also have a smaller zipper compartment in the front that would hold small items. They have a pouch on the side that you could also put a water bottle or a lens in as well. With all of that being said - I think you can hold the camera and a fair amount of accessories in this bag. I really love it!!! :)

Hi - I actually have the bag that matches the above picture exactly. I ended up getting one as a gift, so I had two. I really like it because the camera fits inside and it has enough room for an additional lens.

Well, I'm a bit confused. Some people are saying this case doesn't fit the 870 and others are saying it does. I would venture to say that if a person had to think about whether it fits or not, it probably doesn't. But I haven't seen one first hand. Also, are there multiple cases being reviewed? I've read about both velcro and magnetic closures. Is there another case that fits the 870 better? Currently I'm using a worn out grey suede zippered powershot case that was marketed for the old Elph S100/110 cameras.

Just ordered the Lowepro Cirrus 110 for this camera based upon a recommendation from a camera forum. It looks like a good bag, but I'll try to remember to post here when I find out for sure...

This bag fit if you have one additional lens. Meaning 1 lens attach to the camera and 1 more to change. If not, you can just use the camera and lens. The spare room can be used for wallet, key, etc...this bag is very comfortable, easy to access when need it. Good protection of the camera. I love it
