Review: Lowepro lens cases are great qualty and very functional, especially if you have Lowepro belts or bags that these can clip on to. The 1S is a small case that will fit a small lens without a hood. If your lenses are bigger or you like carrying your hood with your lens, then look at Lowepro's bigger lens cases like the size 1 or 1W or the much bigger size 2 cases.

Conclusion: Fantastic protective case
Review: The guys at Lowepro really know what they're doing. They've put a lot of thought into a simple little case like the 1S. For sure, it's not your average lens case. Here's some of the highlights listed with my comments:
1) OverLap zipper guards - When you unzip the case to open the case, you'll see a large overlapping foam flap next to the zipper. The designer's idea was to keep the line of the zipper away from the interior of the bag, and instead next to this overlap, thereby further protecting the lens inside from dusts, dirt, etc.
2) Reinforced SlipLock - One of the most thoughtful features of LowePro cases, designed for any other LowePro bags with SlipLock ability. This is a wide, reinforced flap with double sided velcro locks, making the attachment to another bag /belt very, very secure. Yet it's very easy to remove when needed. This works well with the LowePro Street and Field belt.
3) Built-in lens cap pocket - Right under the top flap is a mesh to hold your lens cap. With the OverLap zipper, it makes it a tight squeeze to get your lens cap into there, but still it's nice to have this feature.
4) Shock-absorbing open and closed cell foam and padded base
5) Tough, water-resistant outer fabric
Fits: Short, wide lenses including 28-90mm f/4 zoom, 60mm f/2.8 micro and 28.mm f/2.8 (all without hoods).
Inner dimensions: 3D x 3.5H in.
Overall, this is a very a well designed bag. You'll get your money's worth.

Conclusion: works well
Review: Purchased this to hold our alternate lens for our Cannon XTi. This size (1S) case holds the stock lens (EF-S 18-55mm/3.6-5.5) and our favorite other (portfolio) lens (EF 85mm/1.8 - reportedly 2.8 inches long), securely. Fits well without extra room. The case has a belt loop with which we attach it to our other case. All in all, very pleased with the purchase.
