Nice case for D3000. Appears to be made of padded heavy duty synthetic material that will protect camera and lens from moderate collisions with the ground or other objects. Side has small snap strap that attaches the case to the camera strap while allowing you to remove the case completely. Nice Nikon name tag on front. One caviat, if you're used to the hard leather cases that cameras "in the day" used to have, this isn't it. If you're looking for an everyday case to protect your Nikon from normal wear and tear it's a great solution.

When the description said "Semi-Soft" I expected the case to have a bit more protection than it does. As it is, the only thing that is 'semi' about it is the small leather covering at the lens end. The rest is definitely soft (mostly netting)and offers minimal protection. Perhaps my fault for not checking the product on other websites for a more accurate description.

Comments about CF-DC1 Semi-Soft Case - for Nikon D40 with 18-135mm Zoom Nikkor Lens:
I just bought this case for my D60 and it fits perfectly when attached to the wide angle (havent tried the telephoto). I couldn't find the specific case for my camera so after comparing measurements with D40 and other models decided to buy this case. I wanted something that would be good enough to protect my camera so I can just toss it in my backpack and forget the bulky bag and this does the trick. It also has a little button so you can leave the case hanging from the strap while you are taking pictures. This will come handy during my trip in Europe... thank you B&H!!

I bought this for my Nikon D3100 and it works great. I've used it with the kit lens and with a 50mm prime lens. Even the zoom 200mm can squeeze in a pinch, though it does not shut fully on this lens.
Just needed a case to give a little protection when I didn't want to haul a camera bag with lots of gear. The padding is light, but I wasn't looking for something shock proof---just something to prevent the little bumps when moving through crowds or getting in and out of the car.

I was looking for a lightweight case to protect my camera when I travel so I do not need to carry a camera bag. This is perfect - plus it has a tab with a snap so when I open it to use the camera the case hangs off the strap....perfect for what I needed.

Lightweight and fits my camera perfectly. Not for heavy duty protection but perfect to use when out and about and for placing in another bag while traveling. Love the little snap notch that you can slip your camera strap through so the case can stay on while you take photos. But if you want to take the case off completely, its a snap - literally. Bought another one for my daughter's nikon d40. Equally pleased!

My daughter recently purchased her first DSLR, the Nikon 3100, and was in need of some walk-around protection for it. Some quick research showed this item as an option. A little bit more money on average but worth it. It's lightweight, fits her camera with lens perfectly and used the camera's strap. It is lightweight protection against minor everyday camera use. It is NOT heavy duty protection.

The case seems rugged and protective and should meet my need to mechanically protect the camera inside a backpack and shield it from light rain when on my shoulder.

Comments about CF-DC1 Semi-Soft Case - for Nikon D40 with 18-135mm Zoom Nikkor Lens:
Would actually give this case 3.5 stars. Nice lightweight soft case. Easily fits D5000 with 18/55m lens or 55/200mm lens. I have Camera Armor on mine, so it's a VERY tight fit with the 18/55mm. With the armor on and 55/200mm lens equipped, it will not fit in the case.
If you are looking for a simple and inexpensive light duty case to provide bump and scratch protection for a day trip, this case will suit your needs.
If you use Camera Armor or a similar silicone-style protective cover, it will be a very tight fit and a bit cumbersome to remove the camera from the case and reinstall it in the case.
