Fits perfect!

Excellent material that fits perfect and protects my Canon PowerShot SD1000. Ahhh and also with an extra pocket.

Small, cheap, well-designed

The Tamrac 5680 gives you a lot of bang for the buck.

It provides sufficient protection for a camera carried in a purse, bag, pocket, or swinging at the end of a hand strap. Just about the only damage I could see happening to a camera in this case are a cracked LCD due to extreme bending or torsion stress, or damage from precipitation or other liquids.

The one very minor nitpick is that the flap makes it slightly thicker than it would otherwise have to be. On the plus side, the flap makes it easier and quicker to use than a zipper-operated bag.

Note that this bag has just enough space in the front pouch for an extra memory card or two, but other accessories such as a charger would obviously have to be carried separately. However, you'd still want to bring a small bag like this along on vacation for use on day trips.

The belt strap is very secure, and would probably survive a mauling by a grizzly bear without coming loose. I used to think only weenies would wear cameras at their belt, especially as I wear business clothes most days, but I can see how this would be very useful to a hiker. The same strap could let you affix your camera in any number of useful places on the outside of a backpack, any other strap, or multiple places inside a motor vehicle.

I bought the blue version for my wife, as black was out of stock. I generally prefer black, as do most people, but one should remember that a lighter color may help avoid overheating the camera when carried in the sun.

Would I have spent this much time writing a review on a Sunday morning if this cheap little bag weren't top notch? :)

I bought this for my wife, so she gave the following review:

"I have always loved Tamrac camera bags. This one is small, compact and fits on my belt."

Plus my 2 cents: It fits a Canon SD1000 very well & you can carry an extra card.

Tamrac 5206 better fit for Canon PowerShot SD870 IS

Purchased the Tamrac 5680 from Amazon after reading Amazon reviews and Tamrac web-site to check fit for the Canon PowerShot SD870 IS. The actual fit was very snug and the cover did not completely align with the velcro after closing (due to the width of the camera). As with all Tamrac bags, the quality and construction of the bag is very good. Returned the 5680 to Amazon and later found the Tamrac 5206 which seems to fit much better (same features but slightly more room in x,y and z dimensions).

Excellent bag for most Canon SD Powershot/Exim series

Until recently I've owned only Canon Powershot/Exim cameras. This is my favorite camera bag for these and any other camera that can fit into it. Here's why:

* Nearly a perfect fit for the camera, and has a tight front pocket that can handle a spare battery (but it won't accidentally fall out). Adequate padding for everyday low-grade bumps.

* Tiny and compact, with a strong velcro front that opens easier and quicker than a zipper or button, yet holds the camera in just as securely if not more.

* Innovative and unique belt loop that is built out of velcro - you don't need to pull off your belt to attach it, and yet it is designed as strongly as a solid loop.

* Color is plan and simple (also has a few alternate colors with a little more pizazz if you need that). I tend toward boring colors when I'm lugging around a $300 camera on my belt.

* Easily covered with a longer jacket and hardly a bump to attract thieves or repel friends...

I have to remove one star because with about a year or two of use the velcro begins to wear down and it is time to decide whether you want to deal with working to have Tamrac fix that (and you'll probably have to pay shipping and spend an hour arranging everything) or spend another ten bucks on a new one. For the value received, ten dollars every couple years is a bargain for protection and access to my camera like this case supplies.
