| noangels's Full Review: PSC-90 for PowerShot SD-300, SD-200 |
The Canon Elph series is one of the most popular series of small cameras on the market. I purchased this bag for my Canon Powershot Elph SD 600.
Compatibility
This bag is manufactured to fit the following Canon Elph models:
SD 200
SD 300
SD 400
SD 450
SD 600
Features
This bag is made of leather. It has a flip open top that fastens with a clasp for top loading. The bag comes with a leather wrist strap to attach to your camera. This strap fits through a hole at the top and provides a way to hold your camera in the bag. It also has a belt loop. The Canon logo is displayed in the front of the bag on a flap. The bag has a really nice, professional look.
Size and Color
Canon knows that many people who buy these cameras like their small size. The bag follows along that line and adds very little to the size of the camera. It fits the camera exactly, giving you just enough room to get it in and out of the case. The camera will still easily fit into a pocket or a purse with the case on. The case is available in two colors: red and black.
Why do you need a bag?
The bag is necessary to protect the camera, especially the LCD screen. In the SD 200, SD 300, SD 400, and SD 500, there was a manufacturer's defect that allowed the screens to break under little pressure. This bag helps prevent that from happening. This was fixed in the later models, but occurs no less in these. Many people put these cameras in their pockets or purses unprotected, and I see one with a cracked screen come into our store at least once every other week. This bag is a necessity for protecting your camera.
Price
The bag usually retails for $24.99. It is also available in an accessory kit (only black) for $61.99. This includes a neck strap and spare battery. I purchased it separately. The bag is a little bit expensive (I've seen bags from other brands, even leather ones, costing from $8.49-$19.99) but it was well worth it for me.
