If you have a Canon PowerShot SD780IS12.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD (Black), get this case immediately. The camera itself doesn't come with any protective case so it'll be good to have this case for protection. It is made specifically for that camera so the fit is excellent. The magnetic clasp is convenient and holds firmly.

Reading the other review, I was skeptical if it would fit my new SD940 IS - which I really love for it's size and handling. Anyway: I can confirm that PSC-1050 fits SD940 IS like a glove. Yes, the handle-string needs to be pulled all through - on the way in&out - which is normal and no big deal from my point of view. Then the flap closes perfectly = nice and snug. It's quality leather will protect the camera perfectly w/o making it bulky. A bonus would have been a small pocket in the front or whereever for an extra battery. With storage cards in the range of 16 GB which I usually can't "fill" in a month of vacation photos, there is no need to constantly carry another card arround. But, the battery is a different issue. Mine are usually drained after a couple days - and I really like to drain them fully to keep their life up. Therefore, yes, I have been running out of "battery power" from one day to the next and therefore a small clever pocket for a spare battery would be A BIG PLUS on every camera case. ... other than that PSC-1050 is perfect also for Canon SD 940.

Excellent quality, perfect fit and great price. I looked at the offerings in retail stores and didn't see anything nearly as nice this case.

I bought this case since it was recommended to fit the new sd940is by both amazon and [...] (canon's site). While you can shove the camera in tightly (a little bit too tightly), good luck getting the flap to securely shut. To make matters worse, it's a magnetic snap, so unless the flap makes direct contact, which it can't, it doesn't hold. I prefer velcroe flaps (like other generic cases have). Now I'm stuck with a case two days before my vacation that doesn't work. *sigh*

Contrary to what another reviewer wrote, this case accommodates my SD940IS very well. It is initially a little tight (just as all leather cases) but as long as you put the cord through the hole in the case, it works beautifully. If you don't thread through the top hole, then it will not close securely. Perhaps this could be easily solved by getting a different camera cord that didn't have a plastic component?

SD780 measurements: 87 x 56 x 18 mm (3.4 x 2.2 x 0.7 in)
SD940 measurements: 89 x 55 x 20 mm (3.5 x 2.2 x 0.8 in)

Yes, the SD940 is ever-so-slightly longer (2mm) and thicker (2mm) than the SD780 but I can verify that the case does in fact fit my SD940. Extremely high quality case.
