I got me this Silicone Case (Camera Case) of EasyCover in red for my Canon 700D bought (identical to the 650D) to my camera before wear on grip points and shelling (I photograph in the airsoft sport) to protect.
First Impression: When unpacking a lot to me on the thickness of the silicon, so I did not expect so. Good workmanship, seams are tight. The color is top, a continuous, rich, bright red, the shell does not stink as bad as it describe other user, I am not attached so with the nose in the shell in it. Smell is normal discreetly.
Mounting: To mount the cover on the camera, you have to be very careful - the point below the screen is slightly narrower cut - and also disassemble battery grip, lens holder and tape. For someone who wants to use the envelope only occasionally, a bit stupid, because you always have to take the camera apart half. As long as I do not take pictures in an environment that requires discreet appearance of a photographer, I do not have to do from there yes.
Grip: I was a little skeptical because someone has written that it is too slippery. Unfortunately I have to confirm this impression, even if untem trigger front fins are for better grip - hardly help. I still have my battery grip to keep the camera stable and well, so that's no problem for me. Without this, however, I had been thinking that the Drum Leave the silicone sleeve again.
Seat on the camera: Here is the biggest for me plus point, but also biggest minus point. Plus: The cover of the Silicone Case for the hot shoe can be inserted and thus keeps really really good! Finally a passable protection for the contacts of the hot shoe! Now the big drawback: With Battery Grip silicone case is of course no longer fits, then sits at the 4-way box far too loose and is now. First idea: to pinch the shell in the battery handle - does not go to great distance of the battery grip to the camera, no power supply. Second idea: pinching drumrum, paint and abschnibbeln after the painted edge with nail scissors. Said and done. Fits better now; the silicone in 4-way box is indeed to still not perfectly smooth and the screen of the edge is now even narrower, but I'm happy. I can use all my grip fits and I deal with it.
Conclusion: A really nice silicone case that is a bit slippery, but good fit and quality is, as long as you do not use a battery grip. All fields are operated and protects them from wear etc. For use with battery grip you can cut it with no problems.
I hope my impression has helped!
