It depends on how much money you want to waste.

IMHO Most Sony accessories are overpriced and pretty damn useless. I'd
suggest going to a camera shop and looking at the generic bags. I'm sure
you'll find one to fit the W1 at a third of the price of the Sony, which may
be just a slightly padded drawstring bag.

Industrial grade cling film (SARAN wrap) is an ideal screen protector - 3 or
4 layers of the film rolled flat with a rolling pin and cut to size will do
the job nicely.

Yes, agree Sony accesories are way overpriced.
