Recommend: Carry Case for Oly XA?

Can someone recommend a case/bag for an Oly XA? I need something not too dorky looking. Maybe a belt type thing. Not looking to carry my A16 flash with it, just the body.
TIA!

Check out cases for digital point and shoots. I got a Lowepro that fits my Olympus Stylus Epic like a glove. Well padded and has a belt loop. (Unfortunately, there's no name or model number on the case, but the local camera store had several different ones that fit.)

I would take a look at stores that sell bags or wallets or similar accessories. You should be able to find a cellphone pouch or a purse that will fit the XA. Depending on what brand you buy, it could work out cheaper than a 'real' camera case and look better too!

I use a fabric/neoprene belt puuch about the size of a large cellphone pouch that I bought many years ago for lens storage. Costs about $3.00. Beware of leather belt pouches sold by some camera stores over ther internet that are advertised as being custom fitted for the XA and flash. They look nice, but some times the leather finishing is sudstandard. I have one that leaves black dye marks on my clothing. No name on the leather case i tself.
