Does anyone know if something like that is available anywhere? Or advice as to whether or not the holster is a bad idea, leaving the camera lens exposed?

Using a holster is a great idea, IMO, since it enables you to use the Profile settings as intended.

Indeed...and it could be argued that the typical 8300 consumer is more likely to want something different than "standard", assuming they want a case at all.
