Ape Case Digital Camera/Camcorder & Accessories Bag Tall AC250 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this case intending to use it with a Canon VIXIA HV30. Here is what I found:
Pro:
-Case is sturdy, made in China (what isn't these days?).
-Comes with a shoulder strap.
-Has a lifetime warranty.
I tried to stuff all the accessories in to see how much it would hold. Whether anyone would need to carry all these things, I wouldn't know, but I think it is a good way to do it for review purposes.
The Canon HV30 fits in the main pocket. One side pocket holds the remote and an extra film tape. One side pocket will hold 2 batteries. There is a zippered compartment behind the main one. It held the adapter and plug for a wall, but absolutely nothing else. For the front side pocket, it would hold 2 extra film tapes, maybe a cellphone. There is a zippered mesh bag on the inside front of the front pocket that could hold change, batteries, possibly a miniSD card.
I am not sure how I would fit a battery charger, manual, videomic, usb or firewire cables, or other accessories. If traveling some people might leave the battery charger in their room, but if you were taking it out for professional use you might need it. Either way, there is no space for these things.
Con:
-It will not hold many accessories.
-The belt loop on the back is uncomfortable with anything in the back pocket.
-It has decent padding, but seems a bit thin. I include it as a con because I like to protect my stuff very well. It might be good to some.
On the whole, it is a decent, but small case (interior dimensions are 4.7"W x 6.3"H x 1.97"D). If I was only carrying a camera around I think it would fit my needs perfectly. For a person using a camcorder with lots of attachments, I would say look elsewhere.
