I had a lowepro 100 bag but it felt bulky on the belt and I wanted a smaller one.
The Nikon does the job but barely. It has some padding and fits the camera compared to the Loweproe which had to be stretched. It is 1/2- 2/3rds the bulk of the lowepro. There is no belt loop but a belt can be slipped between the top and the back of the case and it seems to work well as a belt loop carrier. The camera is so light that it should hold. The lowepro uses a velco strip to hold the lap belt shut so this should work using the velcro closer of the top. The side pockets and inside pocket will carry memory cards and extra batteries so as a case it has all the necessary goodies. But it is very plain and is easily worth about half what I paid for it. The lowepro was much cheaper.
Although Nikon has its name on it there is no other model or camera number markings on the case and it came in a plastic bag, not a box.
If you want a bigger better case, get the lowepro. If you want the smaller case, get the Nikon.

This case is a Nikon branded case so I was expecting a little more than what I actually got. There doesnt seem to be much padding to protect the camera. There is no strap or belt loop like the description claims. However, the camera fits it perfectly. There is one mesh pocket inside and a pocket on either side on the outside. I think most of the price of this is for the Nikon brand name printed in the liner.
