Conclusion: Best bag I could find for the Canon S3 is.
Review: Iv'e been looking at many bags for my new canon S3, and read many reviews on the net. I got a headache looking so many different suggestions and trying to choose one based on others opinion. I decided to go to a local camera shop with my camera and try them all in person. My S3 has the lens adaptor installed and I plan to leave it that way, so I wanted to find the perfect fitting bag. I got to look at the different model Lowepros, as well as the Case Logics and Tamracs.
This Lowepro was the best fitting as well as the best quality of all I looked at. The case is just large enough to hold my camera with lens adaptor attached, a case with 3 filters, the lens hood in the front zipper pouch, usb cable in the perfectly sized side pocket (also great for a cell phone). The camera fits snuggly, but not tooo snug facing down, with just enough room on the side for my 3 filter case. A padded velcro divider seperates the camera and filter case. There is also enough room to store my manual and extra batteries. You would be able to squeeze in a battery charger in the front zipper pouch if not storing the lens hood there. I doubt you could carry anything else but it might be possible. There is a pocket on each side which are equal sizes and fits my LG VX7000 cell perfectly, but couldn't fit anything else there with the phone.
The fit is perfect. The case looks smaller than it does in the pictures here. When my camera is in the bag, the back of the camera is level with the upper zipper like it was made for this camera. The padding is better than all the other bags I looked at, altho the Tamrac wasn't too bad. The Tamrac didn't have little extra storage pouches I wanted, and felt a little floppier if that makes sense.
This bag is very well made. has everything I wanted and is still not too big. I feel it will protect my camera well while looking good and being functional for all I need.
I hope this description helps, I read about all of them here and being so picky, I had to go try them all myself with camera in hand. Everything about this bag says quality. You wont be disappointed...

Conclusion: For Canon PowerShot G3 and basic accessories
Review: I'm using this bag for my Canon PowerShot G3 digital camera and all of the little extras like the AC adaptor, USB cable, and CF cards.
I was looking for a bag that would hold everything -- for storage or for traveling somewhere where I'd want to bring all this stuff -- yet in a compact bag. Well, this is it. I looked at lots of bags but this one was by far the best.
In the main compartment there's a removable divider. I have my camera (w/ neckstrap) standing on end on one side with the AC adaptor on the other side. Extra CF cards, USB cable, remote, etc. fit in the exterior zippered pocket.
The bag is very well padded, has a nice carry handle as well as shoulder strap, and is compact while holding everything I need it too. I wouldn't be able to fit anything else in this bag, but then again, I don't need to.
For those looking for a bag to hold the Canon PowerShot G3 (a larger camera and thus harder to find a proper fit) and the basic accessories, this is a great bag. For an on-the-go bag that just holds the Canon G3 w/ CF cards, check out the Tamrac Digital 4 -- it's perfect.
