Customer Review: Nice, except for Zipper
Summary: 3 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
The Ridge 10 case is part of a series of Ridge cases for smaller P&S cameras. I have a Ridge 30 in which I carry my Canon S90. The Ridge 10 is not big enough to carry the S90 comfortably, but it is big enough to hold a Canon Powershot S1000 or S1300 subcompact P&S. It is nicely padded and sturdily constructed. If you have a minor drop of your camera with this case around it and properly closed, it will be well protected.
The case has a beltloop that does not open or detach. I believe this is a security feature to prevent someone ripping it off of your belt by just tugging a bit. This makes it a bit less convenient to attach or detach, but it's probably a good design choice for tourists going to crowded urban areas or transportation terminals. It's also likely the best choice for someone who is participating in active outdoors use in that it won't fall off without some fairly calamitous event.
There is a detachable neck strap that is adjustable and is attached with nylon fittings to the main case. I tend to not use this as it is not padded at all and feels a bit rough on the neck if you don't have a collar to protect yourself. Other than that, nothing against this particular strap - I tend not to use them in general because they get in the way. I have tossed this one in the "bin of nylon straps" for alternate use by my kids in their projects.
The main compartment is held closed by a really aggressive velcro closure. I don't know that I would change it since it does prevent any kind of casual exit of your camera from the case, however it is somewhat noisy when opening it. This means if you intend to take your camera out during a quiet event (e.g. Wedding, presentation, etc.) you should get the camera out early under cover of other room noise because this baby sounds like sheets tearing. Once again, great for protection, but not subtle.
There is a zippered compartment in the flap for holding small, flat items. I was using it for holding SD cards. I have don't do this any more. The zipper closes by pulling it up, which means it opens by pulling it down. What I have found is that this means it opens on its own, all the time. Lowepro, if you're reading this, gravity pulls on the tails of shirts and jackets and therefore tends to pull zippers DOWN more than UP. As a result, any item placed in the zippered pocket can be at more risk than you would think. There is another pocket that is in front of the main camera compartment. Use that instead, even though it is open when you open the main flap. At least you will know when you are opening it. By the way, it is this small compartment under the flap where I store batteries and SD cards now.
I still like this case and would recommend it over most of the others out there due to the fact that although the zipper is in the wrong direction, everything else works well and it protects my camera well.
