A 50USD range Leather Half case for Leica, anyone interested?

[boobo]

Sorry I have to postphone my report. Too busy this week.

I fit the case on my M4p and carry it every day. I must say I like it more and more. I am starting thinking to sell my handgrip...............hehe, try to return you soon.

🙂I knew you would like it.

To all RFF members, This Sunday I will list five members who will participate the trial. So you still have a chance to test my half case before Sunday.

The only qualification requirement is that you are expected to have at least one half case, e.g. Leica original case(not vintage case), Luigi, or AA, that you can compare and you promise to write a detailed review and post it on RFF (pls allow me to refer them in the further in other places maybe).

Thanks

Would there be a case for an M7 or an M8?

there is a market but Mr Z needs to improve the quality of the leather.

I'm confident that if you gave one of these cases to a world authority on leathermaking and he proclaimed it as good or better than a Luigi case, it would still not satisfy the important criterion of being able to say you spent $300 on half of a camera case 😀

Luigi half-case in "old" AGED BROWN finish (gorgeous stuff) for my MP was only $140 USD, direct from Luigi, new. Where'd you get this $300 from?

In looking at the photos above I'd suggest a slight change to the rear opening to allow one to access the exposure compensation lock button on the M7. Just a thought.

If the case covers that button I would suspect that it would wreak havoc with an already somewhat sensitive part of our beloved M7.

I look forward to the reviews guys. I am a very happy Luigi customer, but surely would appreciate options should I feel the need for a second case.

Prices and shipping cost, Packing & Handling included, are:

Eur 170 for the HALF case, with rear cutout and rear door, either removable or hanging
Eur 200 for the half Built-in-grip, with rear cutout and rear door, removable or hanging (suggested)
Eur 320 for the FULL case, with rear cutout covered by the LONG (removable top) rear pad, OR,
Eur 340 the FULL case, with rear cutout covered by the LONG rear pad and by a 2nd removable
patch, that is precious if/when the user likes to detach the top part, using only the half bottom!

Are there other prices? $140 doesn't sound bad.. I've always thought it's at least 170 Euros or so..

If you search "Luigi" in the Classified these two ads pop up:

http://www.rangefinderforum.com/photopost-classifieds/showproduct.php?product=270&cat=all

and Luigi re-posts or "bumps" them up all the time. That's when I saw it a month or so ago and ordered mine.

Oh i see.. I thought they were one-off deals...

A brown case is on the way to comogi10. Others will be sent soon. Look forward to your reviews.

Ferider, please check your PM box to see my message.

What--no M5?

What--no M5?

Sorry to see that there is no case for M5. I guess I'm stuck with the stock one.
