 Excellent leather case for your SD500, SD550 or other similar cameras! April 8, 2006

This case is perfect for my SD550 or any similar sized camera. My camera fits snug and it's the least bulky case I've come across. One drawback however: Since it is optimized to be as slim as possible there is NO room for an additional memory card or battery. This poses no problem for me as I only use this case to carry the camera in my pocket. All accessories are in my large camera bag.
Both the back and the front of this small case are designed with a hard stiff front and back designed to protect the LCD monitor. There are NO zippers to scratch the polished metal or LCD of your camera. The case opens with a velcro tab which holds the camera very securely.
One other case I would consider is the Lowepro D-Pod 10 which is slightly more bulky but does provide a bit more protection. I have both and use both depending on the amount of protection desired. My dad owns only the PSC-55 as it provides plenty of protection for him.
This is a very nice case and reasonably priced.
A perfect fit May 8, 2006

This case is a perfect fit for my Canon SD700 IS. It doesn't have pockets or room for extra batteries and charger, but it slips right into my pocket or purse. The leather is soft and smooth, fit and finish is very good, and the hard front and back of the case provide a little extra protection for the camera. It does have a belt loop on the back that I will probably never use. Included in the package is a matching black leather wrist strap for the camera. If you want something small and sleek to protect the camera, not to carry a ton of accessories around in, I highly recommend the PSC-55.
Nice case January 23, 2007

This is a nice and compact leather case and is a good bit less bulky than some of the "universal" cases. It is an especially good fit for the SD800 IS we have and the leather is a nice texture for slipping in your pocket still. I like the snap closure better than the velcro which can be fairly noisy in situations that need to be quiet. It also has a little magnetic property that helps latch it. The only caution I have to exercise is that the snap on the cover will tap the camera if you don't hold it going either in or out of the case. I don't know that it would hurt anything but I try to prevent that any way, which is easy by simply holding your hand a little differently. But this is my case of choice by a long shot. It has that nice look and feel associated with fine products of this kind.
The best camera case. Period. August 9, 2007

Quit reading these reviews and just get the darn thing. You will not regret it.
PROs:
1. Sleek and trim. It's a perfect fit, with no unnecessary space between the camera and the holder. This means there's no room for holding an extra battery or memory cards. So carry the extra battery and memory card somewhere else. Big deal. It's a moot point for many of us, since a fully charged battery will almost always last an entire day, as will a 2GB memory card. (Exceptions for heaving shooting or flash use).
2. Belt loop. Yes, it's tiny hassle having to undo one's belt to slip on the camera case. But, for those of us who don't carry a purse, it's a godsend. I frequently carry the SD800 in my front trouser pocket without the case. But when it's in the case, it won't fit comfortably in the pocket. Thanks for the belt loop.
3. Magnet clasp! From the pictures, I thought it was a metal snap, but it's not. It is a magnet. The little button on the flap fits into the small corresponding hole, but it does not "snap" shut like a snap. It merely shuts securely via magnetic force. Opening and closing with one hand is . . . a snap. What's nice about the magnet is that even if the little metal button misses the hole, the magnetic force will still keep the flap shut.
4. It Looks Great. The leather (or faux leather) has a nice matte-type sheen, similar to that of a Coach Handbag. The metal "Canon" emblem on the flap is elegantly done, even if it seems to scream out "Great camera inside; steal this." Nice touch.
5. Canon Does Canon. I have bought cheap camera cases from third party makers (via eBay), and you get what you pay for. They're not bad cases, but this Canon one is just a notch above.
5a. Matching Strap. This is a minor point, but the case includes a black leather strap to replace the silver nylon one that comes with the camera. The silver strap would look weird hanging out of a black leather case, so the new strap matches. Unfortunately, now you have a black leather strap on a silver camera. I suppose it works.
CONs:
A. A Little Too Snug. The tight fit is just a tad too tight, and you must remove the camera by grasping it with thumb and finger at the camera's edges. (Don't try to yank it out by the strap.) While removing the camera, your finger could accidentally depress the on/off switch (located on top near the shutter button) while the lens is still in the case. I haven't tried it, but I don't want to know what happens if you press the "on" button, and the lens motor tries to push the lens out, while the case is trying to hold it in.
B. No Storage for extra battery or memory card. But see above re: most will not need this feature.
 Current version of PSC-55 does not fit Canon SD870IS January 26, 2008

Just received this case from Amazon to hold a new Canon SD870IS (also from Amazon). This version of the PSC-55 case does *not* fit the SD870IS. The product description here doesn't match the actual product - the "new" version has a magnetic clasp vs. the Velcro closure (see description). Will be returning this case to Amazon.
Notes:
- I have a previous version of the PSC-55 (also purchased from Amazon, back in 2006) - and it fits my Canon SD630 *perfectly*.
- The 2006 version had the Velcro closure, which makes it so much easier to securely close the case. (You don't have to precisely align the little metal button with its magnet, as with the 2008 version.)
- I placed the two PSC-55 cases right next to each other: The 2008 version is narrower (top-to-bottom) and thicker (front-to-back).
- There is at least one other reviewer here who has noticed the same problem (with the SD870IS).
