I own the Black on not the camo one. I have the battery pack for my 5D, and I've discovered the Camera Armor makes it very difficult to get in and out of the SD slot. The camera Armor fits fantastic when I do not have the vertical grip attached. But as I use that grip all the time, the armor does not fit well at all. I have to pull the Camera Armor out and down, away from the body in order to open the slot. Which makes for slow swapping out of cards and the realization that I need a 3rd hand.
It did protect my camera when the strap broke and it fell, but getting into and out of the SD compartment fast is very important.
