LensCoat BodyGuard Compact CB Overview

The BodyGuard Compact Clear Back Case from LensCoat, in Realtree MAX-4 HD finish, is a touch fastened, shock-absorbing neoprene cover that can extend the life of your camera while maintaining its resale value by protecting it from scratches, dings, and bumps. It also serves to keep dust, dirt, fingerprints, and other contaminants away from your camera body and lens.

The beauty of the BodyGuard Compact case is that there is a clear back that allows you to maintain contact with most buttons and switches. As a bonus, it can also serve as a noise damper by reducing shutter noise. There are cleverly designed finger access slits on the side that permit you to reach other controls on the camera. Shooting is not an issue since you can either push down on the neoprene or reach the shutter by sliding your finger under the cover. The unit is easily installed or removed, especially when you need to change batteries. Access to your flash and camera strap are never a problem with the BodyGuard. This model of the BodyGuard Compact CB (Clear Back) is designed to carry a compact DSLR body with lens attached, without the optional battery grip installed.

LensCoat BodyGuard Compact CB Reviews

A complete waste of $

By The Amazing Rando
Rated 1 out of 5

-clumsy, generic form fits no camera well and every camera poorly -shell is almost completely open on front, providing no protection at all -access cutouts in shell fit neither flash, cable ports, memory card access, or fingers Don't waste your money as I did, thinking this would be a practical padded shell for a Canon T4i with grip. It isn't. With the T3/T4 obviously you cannot unfold the LCD, the placement of the cutout slits in the side of the shell apparently mean you are expected to hold and operate the camera's controls with 4 fingers braced up the sides of the body? Meanwhile the velcro-closure on top barely fits the hotshoe, let alone allowing the flash. The clear plastic back does allow you to use the rear panel buttons properly but and does not interfere with the touch-sensitive LCD, but overall this shell is so ill-fitting it's more a liability than a benefit as you'll be constantly peeling it away to access the shutter, power switches or any other adjustment on a Canon. And of course it provides no protection whatsoever to your lens, or really the front of the camera at all as the large cross-shaped slit to fit the barrel through means it is nearly wide open. Do yourself a favour and buy a removable carrycase or neoprene shell at 1/3 the price instead.

doesn't fit Oly EPs/EPLs

Since this was listed as compact in size, I thought I would try it for my new Oly E-PL1. Way too big, in fact, it fits (too tightly) on my Nikon D90. This is a very nice cover, but manufacturer needs to recommend for specific camera bodies. I can only recommend for cameras closer in size to Pentax K-x or K-r, or maybe a Panasonic GH (this may still be too large, however).

Must you remove the neck strap to use? Also, does this product also fit the NIKON D7000 with grip?
Asked by: Harvey
The strap can be used with the LensCoat BodyGuard Compact Clear Back Case with Grip (Black). It will fit the D7000 camera plus the battery grip.

question

do you think this case or one similar will fit a leica V-lux3?
Asked by: john R.
You could use the OP/TECH USA D-SLR Digital D Series Soft Pouch for the Leica V-Lux.
