Re: Anyone use a case for EX2F and can highly recommed it?

Still looking for a good one. Picked up a 10 dollar job at walmart last night after dropping the camera sans protection one week into owning it.

Stupidly waited too long. The Samsung leather case is great protection, but defeats the purpose of spending a compactness premium on a camera like this. Needs to slide in and out of a jacket pocket without adding an ungainly lump to my side.  This one standby.  Decent fit, but minimal foam protection and still bulky.

There are actually quite a few popular cameras with dimensions nearly identical to the EX2F.  Does anyone offer a zippered case, ballistic nylon shell, hard foam inner lining (this case logic has uselessly soft foam), that conforms more accurately to the body and lens mass of the EX2F, Lumix LX7, Canon G15,  Fuji X10, Canon s100, Olympus xz-2, etc.  There are more.  What I mean by lens mass is the lens in retracted mode.  On each of these cameras it does not retract flush with the body.

Each of these is close enough to a standard shared dimension that one well designed case would accommodate them all.  Slim, form fitting at the body with molded cup for the lens that protrudes from these models, and lined with at least 1/4" very dense semi rigid foam.

No one has discovered similar to this?  It's impossible to go by images and dimensions online. Kind of have to zip it around the camera to be certain.
