Cameraleather / Aki Asahi - 4034/black beauty

don't worry. this was just too nice a chance for a bad joke to let it pass.
;-)

next week, i hope to receive some #4040 cover - then i should be able to post a pic of that, too.

cheers,

Sad news: I tried to order some more #4034 from Aki but was told it's no longer available, as "factory finished production and have no plan to reproduce".
 
Yeah, I just received an email from them too and it's no longer being made and not coming back too bad I really wanted to put the #4034 on the Black Paint M3 project I'm going to do......

That Kanto Camera in Japan does a leather covering that looks like Guttapercha, the cost is like $70 dollars in Yen, but I don't think they sell kits, the camera has to go to the shop for it to be done etc.

:( I really wanted that #4034 because it had such a great look/feel but I guess I'll have to go with the #4008 now?

Funny I did the same thing other week ago and same response too, shame. :(
 
shame 4034 isn't being made anymore. I wonder why. Replaced the junky sandpaper leatherette on my M9 w/ Aki Asahi last year.
