Customer Review: Very Useful Camera - Amost Useless Case
Summary: 2 Stars
This is the biggest purchase mistake I have made in selecting support equipment for my Canon dRebel (300D). I have never used the case since purchase and think I never will.
I bought the case because all my 35mmSLRs have always had a case. My problems started when I found the case blocks almost all access ports: CF memory, battery and printer. It will not work with any of my telephoto lenses on the camera. The final blow came when I purchased a BGE-1 Battery Grip - that BGE-1 has never left the camera since. The battery grip size and bulk precludes any chance of using the EH16L Case - and the utility of the BGE-1 (see my review) for portrait and professional work takes priority over any protection offered by the case.
Using a hip bag, backpack bag for casual shoots or vacation and a monster bag for professional shoots gives enough storage protection for my plastic bodied dRebel.
Casual use of the dRebel for the recreational photographer - would probably be the best use for this case. In my experience - only a few owners of the Rebel use the case - even if they have not accessorized the camera.
The case becomes useless when adding on an eyepiece extender (EP-EX15 - see my review), telephoto lens, filter sets, lens cleaners - all this and you're better off with a hip bag or backpack bag. Padded bags offer more flexability and versatility than does the hardcase.
The cost and quality are secondary to the usefulness of the product - which seems to get in the way as we all move further into the world of digital photography. Even my point and shoot cases (for Canon Powershot A75 and A85 cameras) have room for an an extra battery set, CF memory cards and lens cleaning rags.
Serious photographers will find this type of case useless as the accessory list to your camera grows!
