    I bought a basic neoprene case from aliexpress for the FZ70. Snug fit and a pain to extract camera in a hurry so I'll go a size bigger next round. With digital you generally want to carry a spare battery. With the FZ80 you have a damned good zoom range so shouldn't need to carry too much extra.

    One I really found useful with the old OM10 film camera had an extra long lens nose. Could fit in one large lens fitted or a small one attached and another small lens in the end plus a few other bits. Generally carried the 50mm and a 35-70mm zoom.

    Need to look at new cases as just picked up a couple of M4/3 cameras. Not that impressed with the quality of modern lenses so will use adaptors for my quality older stuff that has wall-wall glass.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
