Manufacturer Description
The toughest protection for your camera: We custom design each of our cases to fit the camera like a glove. All controls and access points are still accessible and you can use your camera at a moments notice. No more missed photographs trying to get your camera out of its case. Rugged, custom fit cases that provide protection from impact and abrasion while allowing full access to all features of the camera. Great for outdoor use (currently being used for nature photography, climbing, cycling, bungee jumping, canyoning, aerial photography, forensics, photo journalism, etc), working with multiple cameras (wedding photography, industrial applications), or other activities where full-time protection is required without a lot of additional bulk or weight. 4 part system includes Lens Armor, Body Armor, LCD shield, and lens cap lanyard. Works with most tripods, optional battery grips, flash guns, L-brackets, and other accessories. (Some customization may be required) Proprietary silicone material is heat stable to 420 degrees, provides protection from heat or cold, and gives the camera a secure, grippy feel. Does not trap condensation under the armor, and will not deform or lose its shape over time. Lifetime warranty.

Ruggedized Camera Cover
There are three parts: 1. Case which is designed to fit over the entire camera; 2. Clear plastic part which fits over the view lens on the back of the camera.; 3. A large round rubber piece designed to fit over the lens in the front of the camera.
The soft pliable rubber fits snuggly over the Nikon D40 camera, providing a the camera with a protective barrier. A clear plastic piece is designed to fit over the back view lens which provides scratch resistance.
I personally don't use piece number 3.
It does the job - provides "armor". It was recommended to me by a friend and I recently also recommended it to another friend.
I use it on my Nikon D40.
Worse than bad
This is a hinder to you using your camera. Hard to attach a tripod to camera with the rubber flopping into the underneath of the camera. Fits like a glove - a baseball glove. The Rubber on the back covers all the buttons and makes all the buttons sloppy to push. Each change of the menu was an ordeal and a lesson in anger management. I ended up going underneath the rubber to get access to the controls.
Nice try, but don't bother. I cut mine off with a razor so I would not be tempted to use it again.
Excellent Protection for Camera
This is an excellent product to prevent your camera body from damage. It was a little hard putting it on but with a little stretching and tugging it fit like a glove. Every Camera Armor is made specifically for each camera body so it has openings to access the battery, SD/memory cards, viewfinder, mode dial, etc. Also, it has a clear plastic cover for the LCD monitor to protect it, too. The price is very reasonable considering the alternative. Most of the entry level/lesser priced camera bodies are made from plastic so they can be scratched or broken easily. My only complaint - the small function buttons have their symbols or letters molded into the rubber and are hard to read. This won't be a problem after I get used to operating the camera and get familiar with them. I tried using some white paint to fill in the letters and symbols but it is not sticking to the rubber. I need to find a paint that will work. Anyway, I'm very happy with my Camera Armor.
