The toughest protection for your camera: We custom design each of our cases to fit the camera like a glove. All controls and access points are still accessible and you can use your camera at a moments notice. No more missed photographs trying to get your camera out of its case. Rugged, custom fit cases that provide protection from impact and abrasion while allowing full access to all features of the camera. Great for outdoor use (nature photography, climbing, cycling), working with multiple cameras (wedding photography), or other applications where full-time protection is required without a lot of additional bulk or weight. 4 part system includes Lens Armor, Body Armor, LCD shield, and lens cap lanyard. Works with most tripods, optional battery grips, flash guns, L-brackets, and other accessories. (Some customization may be required) Proprietary silicone material is heat stable to 420 degrees, provides protection from heat or cold, and gives the camera a secure, grippy feel. Does not trap condensation under the armor, and will not deform or loose its shape over time. Lifetime warranty.

I purchased this to protect my camera from minor dents, dings, rubbing, and scratching associated with use on construction sites and congested environments. I found that the fit was good and the rubber robust enough. This is an essential tool to protect an expensive camera. Having said that, it is not perfect. A couple of improvements could be:
1. The rubber around the grip is not tactile enough. I'd prefer a checker-plate pattern. Also, the vertical ridge where fingertip pads fall is indistinct. A raised rib would be good. The palm rest also needs more texture.
2. The popup flash is not provided with protection. When slung nose down, this area can be the first subjected to an impact. A formed rubber shield, possibly attached by self-adhesive tape would solve the problem.
3. There is no rubber atop the CF card door. This leaves a dip where the fingers falls across it. A hinged rubber cover would solve this.
4. There is no cover for the left side either. Although the ports are already covered by the camera mounted covers, the opening feels a bit unfinished.
5. The bottom of the cover encroaches on the battery door. This should be cut back.
6. The cover rolls just slightly under the bottom of the camera and stops, leaving the rest exposed. I solved this by cutting up an old mouse pad and double stick taping it to the bottom of the camera. If you ever had to use the side of a concrete building to steady a camera, you'll know why this is important.
7. The raised icons over the buttons are really hard to see. Painting them white would return their functionality. Also it would be nice if the camera model was printed on the front.
8. The lens shield is ugly and makes the camera hard to drop into a bag. However front lens protection is very important. A thick rubber band that can be stretched around the front filter would go a long way to protect the lens.
9. Lastly, the rear LCD cover is redundant as Nikon already supplies one. However, a top LCD cover is really needed (or at least a precut self adhesive protector).
MADE has a nice and very useful product - I hope they continue to improve it.
