Currently, there are many compact cameras from multiple vendors. These come in all shapes and sizes. The majority of the cases (e.g. for protection, security, and safety) on the market are generic loose-fitting cut-and-sew products. The camera is stowed in the case and then brought out to take a picture. The person then has to find a place to put the case while they take the picture and often the case becomes misplaced or damaged (e.g. by water or dirt). The solution that we are showing is a wrapping cover which is permanently attached to the camera (as one example), to protect the camera, for example. The cover wraps around the camera and forms a very close fitting protective cover for the camera. Because the user wraps the material around the camera, the size of the cover is as small as possible (for better stowing in pockets and purses (for better mobility and more convenience)). There are no extra air spaces because of a generically sized cover (in this example). The wrap cover is attached full-time to the bottom of the camera, using the standard tripod mounting hole that exists on the majority of cameras. When there is no mounting hole, there is a hook, ring, or similar attachment device that can perform the same function. When the person wants to take a picture, he/she simply unwraps the wrap cover, which then hangs below the camera, and then he/she takes the photograph. Other variations are also discussed.
