The handsome black Leather Case for the XZ-1 Digital Camera from Olympus is a custom designed way to carry your XZ-1 in the field. It is meant to be removed while shooting and is supported by the strap that comes with the XZ-1. There is a handy loop on this case that keeps it suspended on the camera's strap and prevents it from falling or getting lost. In addition, the case comes with a rear belt loop that will leave you hands-free while shooting.
