The size is just fine for our purposes. The Sony HX1 fits in well and can be fixed well with the provided partition. Now it has also some space, which you could use for candy, cigarettes, tissues, papers or even a mini tripod for example. Often you can therefore save an extra bag when you go out for more. On day trips on holiday, it has been really successful! In addition, there is ample space for batteries and memory cards. About how the bag for extracting the camera is open, you have to first get used to, however. This is done not with namely the tab forward, but with a zipper "around the back". With the padding we have been very pleased. The capabilities of the rain cover we tested so far only in the drizzle.
