Two slide-in storage compartments for memory cards. No room for extra battery...but perfect little leather case to protect the ZS3 from any scratches. Looks nice and wears well. Snap closure.

There are times when I'm on the road, in my car or on my motorcycle, and something begs to be photographed. I may not have my Nikon or it would take too long to get it all together to get that one shot. The case I have for my Lumix DMC-TZ5 is worn on my belt, everyday, takes about 10-seconds to prepare for the shot and captures what I want.

This is a good, solid case for the TZ3 for light duty. It is not waterproof or particularly rugged, so I wouldn't use this one in extreme environments. I bought a second case (Lowepro Rezo 30) to be my more rugged case, but I don't like it as much because it unzips too far, and I wind up using this leather case usually. In my opinion it is also by far the most handsome of the available cases for the TZ3.

Many small cases do not fit this camera, and the ones that do are mostly bulky, which negates the fun of having a small camera. This is is made for the camera, and I think worth a little extra money for a good fit that keeps the camera's small profile.

This is the ideal general-use case I was looking for to store my Lumix TZ5. As the attached photos show, it is an exact fit, while allowing easy removal of the camera by tugging on the camera's wrist strap. The leather itself is very thin and soft, but reinforced internally with a stiffener to protect the TZ5's fragile lens shutter, and it is lined with a nice grade of black microfiber. It has a magnetic catch that took some getting used to; if pressed shut properly it is quite secure; the trick is to slide the lid sideways till you hear a "click". There are two small pockets in the foldover lid to hold a couple spare SDHC cards, but no room for a spare battery; a pity. Still, this is _the_ case to choose if you want a minimal cover for this camera. Actual external measurements of mine are 110mm wide, 70mm high, and 53mm thick, due to the thickness of the lid and catch. With the lid open, the pocket holding the camera is 42mm outside measure for thickness. As the uploaded photos show, the camera is a snug slip fit in the case. I didn't care for the detachable wrist strap, as I felt the lug on it could scratch the camera and it was likely to be a nuisance for belt use. Might be handy in a purse or for handheld carry. The remaining D-ring for the strap is a bit of a problem in that regard; I may remove it as well. The leather is a very nice grade that softens with use and makes this a nice overall minimalist case. For wet weather or rougher use, I employ a molded-foam Samsonite, but for every other occasion and everyday use, this is ideal and far more convenient for both storage and ready removal with no-zipper, silent convenience. This case carries horizontally so it is comfortable when sitting and accessible even in the car. Just what I was looking for!

Great case for DMC-TZ5. Just returned from a trip to San Francisco and wore it on my belt all the time, even driving in the car, for easy access to the camera.
