I was after a Nikon CL-0715 Lens Soft Case (Af Dx 10.5/2.8G) for an AF Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D lens (phew!) and looked around to find one. Well, they are available but I whinced at the price and thought there must be a cheaper alternative. What I ended up buying was this lens case - the Matin Neoprene Lens Pouch 50 Small. Did I say "Cheaper"? Some people don't like this word, so I will say "Better Value" instead. Having used the case for the past couple of months I can say I am delighted with it.
I have a bunch of Nikkor lenses with Nikkon cases (supplied with the lenses) and they are nice, but this item is even nicer. The lens is more cushioned, and the closing at the top feels more secure. This case also has a sturdy clip, seperate from the closing mechinasim, to clip on to a belt or, in my case, to the side of my small camera rucksack - ideal as it means I dont have to rummage in the bag to find the lens.
The case *is* small - lenses requiring Nikon's CL-0913/CL-9015 case will not fit comfortably in this case so have a look at other Matin alternatives.
