[QUOTE="ScottinPollock, post: 479662, member: 40111"] A long long time ago... I can still remember how... That music used to make me... Wait... No. That's not where I was headed. It was back in my film days when our SLR's had really nice fitted leather cases. There was a half shell for the body that attached to the tripod socket, and a front that was attached via a quick release on the bottom, which when pulled up would cover the lens and top and fasten to the back with a snap or two, with the stock camera strap being fully accessible through all of this. Something like this: [url=http://www.ebay.com/itm/Leather-Camera-case-cover-pouch-bag-Grip-For-Nikon-D3100-D3200-D3300-/171725246293?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27fb9f4f55]Leather Camera Case Cover Pouch Bag Grip for Nikon D3100 D3200 D3300 | eBay[/url] I loved these as they were not much bigger than the camera, protected it well for just taking the camera itself everywhere. Plus, you just threw down the top and you were ready for the shot in an instant. Unfortunately this one here looks "a little rough" (it is actually a little backwards from the ones I am describing), but it is the ONLY facsimile I have been able to dig up. Anyone have a source for a nicer one? [/QUOTE]
