  Mini Canon HF11 Video Case December 22, 2008
I love this case, it fits my new flash drive camcorder perfectly for running around without toting other gear. Well made and convenient.
 Provides necessary protection, but cheaply made December 3, 2008

I have several Canon products including many generations of compact cameras, SLR cameras (film and digital) and camcorders and always buy the Canon branded accompanied case or holder.
With a lot of Canon history, this is by far the cheapest last minute thought out camera case made with the Canon badge on it. If you place anything small or loose in the case, you risk it falling out from the slots in the bottom of the case. The strap has decent clips that attach firmly to the case, but the strap itself is very thin and cheap. The construction of the case is just poor. The case is sized right to the Canon HF11 and supports the Extended battery BP-819 and thus does provide the necessary protection which seems to be the only criteria by Canon for this case.
I would buy this case again only because I have found nothing else that is made specifically for the HF11 and protecting the camera is the number one priority even though this case is a disappointment.
Don't go near the sand... November 17, 2008

Bought this case along with the HF11 just before a trip to Maui. The first day there I was on the beach for video of the grandkids with the empty case hanging from my neck. I sat down and the bottom of the case touched the sand. End of case. The bottom of this case is sturdy enough, but it has "slits" along two sides and the sand easily entered the interior which has a velvety lining. I couldn't get all of the sand out with repeated efforts, and obviously didn't want sand in the camera. Ended up tossing the case.
The case fits the HF11 perfectly and offers adequate protection from impact. I don't know if I'll get another one of these (the price is right) or get a larger case that can also accommodate extra battery, recharger, cables, etc. This case has two nice interior pockets for holding SD cards but there is no room for anything else (except sand). Thus it makes a very compact and lightweight package with the HF11.
