A camera holster suited for securing a camera in aquatic environments includes a base that can be attached to an accessory worn by a user. The base includes an attachment mechanism for attaching to the belt or other type of accessory. The front side includes a first magnet. An interior of the base includes a spring-loaded cord with a securement device for attaching to the camera. The spring is biased to retract the cord within the base. The biasing force is small enough to enable a quick access of the camera and extension of the camera via the cord away from the base, yet strong enough to retract the camera via the cord to the base if the user lets go of the camera. The biasing force can be tailored to overcome resistance of water on the movement of the camera.

A case for a lens or telescope has a generally cylindrical side wall attached to a top wall and a bottom wall defining a compartment accessed by an opening extending across the top wall away from a belt mounting sleeve and down the side wall opposite the belt mounting sleeve. The top wall and the side wall are deformable to permit the opening to be enlarged by hand for insertion or removal of the lens or telescope. A zipper secures the opening. An additional opening may be provided at a juncture of the top wall and the side wall.

A golf club head includes a club face and a body. The club face is formed from a metallic material and includes a first, hitting surface, a second, rear surface that is opposite the first surface, and a flange that is separated from the second surface by a transverse distance. The body is formed from a polymeric material and includes a crown, a sole, a hosel, and a face support. The club face and the body cooperate to define a closed volume, and the face support extends to opposing sides of the flange and is operative to couple the club face to the body.

Disclosed embodiments include electroadhesion devices for securing smartphones and other consumer devices to target surfaces. In various embodiments, the electroadhesion device may include a digital switch for adjusting the output voltage generated by a voltage converter. The digital switch may enable safe operation of the electroadhesion device by ensuring the output voltage generated by the voltage converter is compatible with the target surface. To determine a compatible output voltage, the electroadhesion device may include one or more sensors that may measure one or more characteristics of the target surface including conductivity, porosity, hardness, smoothness, and the like.

A lens and/or a view screen of an electronic device having at least one case can be cleaned by wiping the view screen with a cleaning component wherein the cleaning component is configured to selectively couple to the at least one case or some other substrate using a magnetic attractive force. The cleaning devices may have secondary applications such as securing fly fishing lures, activating or deactivating a device having a magnetic switch, or preventing sunglasses from sinking. They may also be manufactured without a cleaning component for use with the secondary applications.

An accessory case that can be used for protecting a separate portable electronic device may include a structural shell configured to contain the electronic device, a camera opening to align with a camera on the electronic device, and a button cover that can be used for actuating a button on the electronic device. The structural shell can include an outer layer, an internal layer, and a microfiber lining. The camera opening can include a chamfered or angled edge that reduces the effects of camera flash on the camera. The button cover can include an outer button cover component that is coupled to the outer layer. The outer button cover component, which may be anodized aluminum, can be a different material than the outer layer, which may include leather.

A collapsible storage container that is insertable into a handbag and which may be used to retain a camera and one or more camera accessories so as to protect the camera, accessories, or any other such items. The collapsible storage container includes a bottom, a front, a back side and dividers disposed between the front side and the back side. The bottom side piece and the divider pieces have a unidirectional grooved channel disposed along the length of the pieces so that the pieces are folded in half in one direction to permit the storage container to collapse flat, with the dividers being sandwiched between the front and back sides. Optionally, the collapsible storage container may have one or more pockets for other items, and may have a flap-top cover extensible over the top of the collapsible storage container.
