Digital camera reviews of Garmin eTrex Carrying Case
Digital camera Review: Great Little Case For eTrax Vista HCx
Summary: 4 Stars
I noticed several negitive reviews for this case that focused on a problem with the case apparently being too deep for the Vista, resulting in it covering over several of the operating control buttons on the GPS itself making the device difficult to use while cased. I have to say that either this reported problem has been corrected, or the reviewers commented on the wrong case. The vista HCx eTrax that I bought fits just right in this case.
I very much like the 'D' Ring on the back of the case. This allows the GPS to be lashed to an equipment loop on your backpack or some other convenient place. I would give this case a 5-star rating but for the fact that I do not much trust the belt hook provided on the case. Though it has not happen to me, I fear that the GPS could slide unnoticed off a belt and be lost if a backup means of attachment were not used.
The overall construction of the case appears to be sound. The case should provide adequate protection for the eTrax unless it is severly abused and beaten up beyond what one might expect from normal use, which does not include throwing it and having the dog retrieve it, or dunking it in a river to see how many times you can do that before it fails. You get the idea.
Anyway -- great product. Worth the money.
Digital camera Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this case for my Garmin eTrex and am glad I did. The case fits perfectly, allows full use of the buttons, and looks good too. Another feature I like is the sturdy clip that secures my eTrex to my belt when hunting.Digital camera Review: Great Protector for GPS Unit
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a Great Protector for this Garmin GPS Model Vista. Sometimes I must remove it in order to see in strong sunlight, but the unit is well protected by the cover. I think it is a must for the bumps of geocaching.Digital camera Review: Great for Military

It fit my Garmin perfect, I am in Iraq so I have it jerry rigged to my IBA, I keep it in my grenade pouch with no worries. A must if you have a Garmin.Digital camera Review: Great!
Summary: 5 Stars
Although Garmin's eTrex line appears to be nearly indestructible, this case provides that extra measure of confidence when packing your GPS into the wild. It is obviously very well assembled and complements any eTrex unit nicely. The best feature is the protective screen that prevents the actual screen from scratches and marks. To me, this case is really the only option for the eTrex series, since you have full access to all of the unit's functions without removing it from the case.
