I bought this lens case for my Tamron 70-300 mm and am satisfied so far. The lens fits into the quiver and is well protected. If you reversed the lens hood around install these still fits with inside. To the smell, was partially reported here: He has to subsided a few days and is normal for this material. I certainly had no fear about my health or felt thereby harassed. The workmanship is good and more there is already not report.
