 Excellent carry around case for the HX1 May 5, 2009

After a week of using a case that was too large for the Sony HX1, I finally broke down and purchased this case. I'm happy to say this is very close to being the perfect carry around case for me. I wanted something that could protect the camera while the strap is either around my neck or shoulder, but also let me access the camera quickly so I can take some shots right away. This case does that. Here are my pros and cons after carrying it around a few days:
Pros
- Nice hard shell with a leather-like soft skin (real leather? Not sure)
- Clam shell design with magnets that keep lid closed make it easy to access the camera
- I like using the neck strap to carry the camera around instead of a separate bag strap
- Fits the HX1 perfectly (it should since its specifically made for it)
- Very elegant looking
- Battery pouch is a nice touch
- A loop secures the case to your neck strap so it won't fall when you whip out the camera for action shots
Cons
- I wish there was another pocket to carry extra memory cards
- The belt loop is okay, but neither of the ends can be detached. Belt loops are so much handier when you can just snap it around your belt and then snap it off without having to take off your belt
- There is no space for anything other than your camera so you'll need something else to store your battery charger and cables
The instructions that come with the case recommend you use this case with the neck strap over one shoulder. The neck strap that comes with the HX1 is a bit short to make that perfectly comfortable for me, but luckily I had already bought a larger OP/Tech neck strap that lets the case hang at the perfect level for me to grab quickly. You can certainly still use the case with the camera around your neck if that is your preference.
I'm very happy with this case. It makes me want to take the HX1 to even more places.

This is the best case for the Sony DSC-H50 camera. It is a perfect fit. The lid snaps open/shut with ease.

A perfect companion to the Sony DSC-HX1 camera. Well design, perfect fit, easy to use and carry. If you have a Sony CyberShot, this is a must
Great Case just a few problems with the design. June 1, 2009

The case is made for this camera but the two problems I see are that it is very bulky and difficult to get the camera in and out quickly, and the second is the small strap that you snap around the shoulder strap to hold the case to the camera (which is only good if you are going to carry the camera around and not use it as much, storage to traveling). This little strap almost caused me to drop the camera a few times because I was quickly taking the camera out to take a pictures and I forgot the strap was attached and it was dangling off the shoulder strap and it is quite heavy and awkward. Overall it's a great case to protect the camera with, I just which the design was better.

The case is fine and does what it's supposed to do; protect the camera. The directions suggest looping the camera's neck strap through it. Therefore, it's a bit awkward to have the case hanging on your neck strap, but also see the logic...you do not run the risk of dropping it. Having the attached spare battery attachment is great. There is NO room for anything else in the case. The camera fit is "snug" and is somewhat difficult getting the camera out of it quickly. It's a good investment to protect your Sony DSC-HX1.
