camera bag for small P&S camera?

[pennylane]

My friend is looking for a camera bag for his Canon SD870. I told him to look at Lowepro and Tamrac bags, and that I myself have Lowepro.

He's currently looking at the D-Pod 10 and the Rezo 10. Unfortunately, don't know much about those bags since I only have SLR-sized bags.

Does anybody have any suggestions as to which he should get? Thanks.

A bag for a small P&S? Why not just go for one of those random little cases to protect it from scratches?

Nearly any bag will do; basically just looking for something to protect it from scratches. Lowepro is a very good brand that makes very durable cases and their D-Pod would be a good choice.

I've got a Tamrac for my Panasonic P&S. Fits snug, has a removable shoulder strap and a little zipper pocket for 4 AAs and memory cards.

Edit: Guess it's been discontinued since I bought it a month ago, but here it is: Tamrac 4391

I bought the Lowepro Rezo 20 for my 870 and I'm very pleased with it.

Do you carry extra stuff with it? memory card? battery? Thanks.

When my wife uses it on field trips at her school she takes an extra battery just in case. The case is a little large with the camera and extra battery but not huge.
