Does anyone know of a very small case that has a clip on it for use on your belt or pants. Similar to an MP3 case or cell phone case. I have an F20.

I would like something as small as possible. Don't need any extra pockets for batteries, memory cards, etc.

I will get to Best Buy and see what they have in the way of bags (or maybe MP3 carriers) but I was interested if anyone has found anything like that.

I'm using a Tamrac 5686 case with my F20. It has plenty of room for my spare NP-70 battery in a velcro-closed second pocket.

With no spare battery, there are smaller ones which will work (Lowepro or Tamrac).

These have a Velcro belt loop (better than a clip, IMHO) which you can loop around your belt without removing it and secure using the Velcro.

I've found a better selection of such cases in high-end camera shops than at Best Buy; but BB will have some on display.

I just noticed you said "no battery", so you can use a smaller one than I suggested in the message above.

The Tamrac 5680 does work but is a tad snug.

The LowePro Rezo 15 is a perfect match; it is what I used until I started carrying a spare battery.

Thanks for the suggestions. It gives me some good ideas if I strike out locally. That Tamrac looks like is is pretty close to what I will want.

The Lowepro looks good too. I can't find a photo of the back online, though.

Try Ritz Camera and Circuit City, they have a decent stock
 
Many of the small cases force you to put the camera into them by
passing a zipper...just asking for scratches. That's why I like
the top of the Tamrac 5686 which closes with Velcro.
No zips on Rezo 15 by LowePro. Fits the F20 very well, but not as good as the 5686 if carrying a spare battery, which I do now.

And my 5686 is Blue :-)

Since all my other cases are black, that makes it easier to grab the F20 vs. something else by accident!

I have the Tamrac 5206 for my f30 IMO a perfect fit without extra battery, and with Delkin protector with hood removed.

Thanks! Looks like I have at least 2 to look at as that one looks like it would work great too. I am going to try locally and if that doesn't work, I will trudge across the river to the Big City and check out some shops. ;)

That is the first time someone has ever recommended something for me that began with cute. ;)

This one from that site looks kind of interesting too.

A simple neoprene padded camera case for the F30. No extra pockets, belt loop or shoulder straps. Just a simple case that will easily slide in and out of your pocket (shirt or pants). It has a zipper, but the zipper channel is padded and after several months of constant use, I have not had any marks or scratches on my cam from the zipper. It is manufactured in Australia and very well made. Comes in 4 colors. When ordering, be sure to state what camera model it is for.

My F30 happily travels in this Op Tech red medium pouch made of stretchable, generously padded neoprene with a front pocket for battery and memory cards, a belt loop and shoulder strap and a zipper to keep out dust which is wide enough for my camera to clear without any zipper collisions.
