How not to carry your pocket-sized camera
Professional photographers carry lots of stuff (additional lenses, spare batteries, extra memory cards, and sometimes even a cell phone, ID, and cash) in their camera bags. All this makes for pretty good size bag, usually with a shoulder strap. Hobby photographers, or off duty pros, get by with a self-contained point-and-shoot camera. Ads for these compact cameras are fond of saying they're small enough to fit in your pocket or purse; and while that's true enough, you might not want to keep your camera there. People also keep other items like keys, coins, and pens in their pockets and purses, any of which can do damage to your camera. Panasonic doesn't want you to take chances with your Lumix digital camera. They make the PSHFX9K black leather carrying case especially for the FX series cameras. So when you're not actually using your camera to take stunning photos, slide it into this top-loading case with convenient belt loop and magnetic closure. Keep it away from the camera-destroying objects lurking in your pocket or purse.

I really like my little camera case. It is compact and provides a safe haven and protection for the camera. I do wish it had a loop on the back so that it could be carried on a belt of a backpack strap.

I got this Camera case with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH20. Its a little small for the camera. The magnetic latch didnt quite line up. I was able to stretch it out a bit to make it fit better so now the magnetic latch closes properly.

This might be a great case for another camera but for the Panasonic DMCFH20V it is a bit tight. I couldnt get the cover to close as the camera was about 12 inch to long and it was so tight that when pulling out the camera I had to touch the controls and the LCD screen to get it out.
I called Vanns and they addressed the problem and immediately sent me out a larger one. Vanns is great!
I will add that if I were to rate the new one it would get all 5s and if I had to rate Vanns they would get all 5s also!

For camera only. Dont expect to put an extra memory card or anything in it. Fits nice on the belt.

I was happy to have received this as a gift with my Lumix camera. The sturdy leather exterior and suede-like interior keep me worry free when on the go with my camera. It is a bit snug at first, but the camera will surely stretch it out a bit. I am very pleased with this case. Thanks Vanns.

This is the item I originally ordered, but it didnt fit the camera I bought from you. Your staff was very helpful and after returning it they helped me buy the correct item.
Vanns is a great company and I will do business again.

This case fits the Panasonic Lumix FS15 like a glove. Protects the camera from accidental bumps and scratches, but does not add much bulk or weight. The camera still fits in your pocket with the case on. The magnetic catch on the flap works very well. Note that there is no extra storage for battery or memory cards with this case, but it is perfect for protecting the camera when out and about, while looking stylish at the same time.

This compact leather case is a snug fit for the Lumix FX series. It can be worn on the belt. I often forget it is there, but pull out the camera for a timely snap. Other cases are too big or have cumbersome straps. This one, from the OEM, is perfect for on the go pix.
