• Great for: outdoor use, multiple camera use, sporting events, inclement weather conditions, hiking, hunting, birding, etc.
• Improved camera grip to avoid accidental drops

THIS CAMERA ARMOUR IS PERFECT FOR MY D60 SLR. THE ARMOUR THAT GOES AROUND MY CAMERA FITS PERFECTLY, AND I HAVE NOT PROBLEMS WITH THE FUNCTIONS OF THE BUTTONS AFTER THE ARMOUR HAS BEEN PUT ON. OTHERS HAVE SAID THAT THEY HAD DIFFICULTY WITH THE BUTTONS ON THEIR CAMERA AFTER THEY PUT THE ARMOUR ON. THIS ARMOUR WILL DO AN EXCELLENT JOB OF PROTECTING MY CAMERA IF DROPPED, BUT YOUR CAMERA MAY STILL SUSTAIN SOME DAMAGE DEPENDING ON HOW IT LANDS ON THE GROUND OR PAVEMENT. PERSONALLY, I NEVER USE MY CAMERAS WITHOUT THEIR STRAPS. DROPPING ONE CAMERA TAUGHT ME AN EXPENSIVE LESSON. HOWEVER, LIKE MOST OTHER PERSONS, THE LENSE PROTECTOR FALLS OFF EVERYTIME I USE IT, SO I DON’T USE IT AT ALL. AMAZON HAD THIS CAMERA ARMOUR ON SALE FOR TWENTY DOLLARS, SO I COULDN’T BEAT THAT PRICE. ALL IN ALL, IT IS WELL WORTH PURCHASING THIS ITEM. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE BODY ARMOUR.

I used the armor on a trip to Disney world. It did a great job by giving me extra grip and also protecting my camera. I did use the lens cap for my 60mm macro lens and it actually worked better than my plastic lens hood. The plastic hood was hitting others including a child and I found that the armor hood did well in crowded places. The camera case itself could have better markings for buttons and while it does slip and is bulky, its does its job well. I have not performed the drop test to check if it really works.

MADE Products CA-1103-BLK SLR Camera Armor for Canon 30D Digital SLR (Black) Review

MADE Products CA-1103-BLK SLR Camera Armor for Canon 30D Digital SLR (Black) Feature

• Ruggedized custom fit protection
• Clear Polycarbonate Lens protects the LCD

I hate camera bags - so I bought this to add a bit of protection when I realized my camera was taking a bit of damage bouncing around on my shoulder all day. It does that perfectly.

There are some cons that people have pointed out:

Yes, you can still break your camera while you have it on. Shocker.
Yes, it might get a little dirty (likes to attract pet hair sometimes).
And yes, if you don’t put it on right, it might cause the flash to not pop up correctly.

But, in my opinion, those are all more a function of user error than the product’s fault.

It should come with a little disclaimer…
This will not make your camera invulnerable - this is made out of rubber, not a miracle substance you have not heard of. You should still keep your camera away from dirt and moisture - this product does not make your camera water proof. You should read the instructions on how to install this correctly.

For what you’re paying, you’re getting a little extra protection - particularly around the lens so if it happens to bump against that chair or person or whatever else it seems to hit when on my shoulder, it has a little give (the lens part is very bouncy and has a lot of give, which i’ve noticed has reduced the shock on my poor lens when I seem to hit everything in the planet while walking around).

Contrary to other reviews, it works perfectly with the flash. When I first put it on I didn’t put it on right so the flash only went half way up - then I realized i was a moron and realized I put it on wrong (the little rubber slot slides into the flash hole - not rests on top of it) and now everything works perfectly.

A neat little trick is that the lens cover piece can roll back so you can easily put the lens cover on, or get it out of the way while taking a shot. The rubber is that flexible - and it really makes things a lot easier.

Another note is that it really doesn’t add much bulk to your camera at all. I have the (extremely tight fitting) Zing large zoom case (with my 28-135mm) and I can still jam it in there. I’m not saying it’s a piece of cake to get in, but it does fit - and that’s all that matters for me because, as previously mentioned, I hate camera bags.

By the way, I just got Canon’s 580EX II flash and it was awesome to see this product was designed to work perfectly with the external flash. It takes about .05 seconds to put the flash on and leave the rest of the camera protected. The 580EX even has the soft rubber on the sides so it matches the Made rubber quite nicely.

Anyway, if you have realistic expectations about what this little tiny investment is for your camera, you’ll be happy.

Enjoy!

MADE Products CA-1135-BLK Camera Armor for Canon XSI Digital SLR Cameras (Black) Review

The armor was easily installed on the EOS Rebel Ti1 Camera I have. It works great and protects the vital parts of the camera. I’m througly satisfied with
the product. I have body armor on other cameras I have and found that it is a very good investment. The armor makes the camera easier to grip and if
you should drop it, the armor provides some degree of impact protection.
