5 Stars nice case
very easy to take on and off camera, seems to offer excellent protection, like the clean simple design
4 Stars Good Enough
I’ve had my Nikon D-5000 for a couple of months now and use this case pretty much exclusively. My original Nikon 35mm film camera (for those old enough to remember film) case used the tripod mount to secure the case to the camera. As the D5000 has the screen the old approach does not work. So, there is a small strap that goes around the neck strap, and you pull the entire case off to shoot and it sort of dangles there. After taking a couple of pictures, you have to pull the case back around the camera (and often the right side sort of folds in and you have to try again). If I’m going to be taking more than a few shots, like at the zoo, I leave the case off completely. So, not the most convenient case, but at the same time not sure how you would improve it. It provides a little protection for dust and bumping and scratches. It is worth buying but can’t rave over it.
4 Stars Nikon D-5000 Case
A must for your D-5000 camera. A little bit of added protection when traveling to and from shoots. This one piece case does not attach to the camera but encases it and has a Velcro closure for easy access to the camera. The case can be removed for camera use or dangled from the camera strap if you do not have a place to put it while capturing a memory. This could potentially get in the way but I have not experienced this yet.
