I recently acquired a 3f with 50 Summicron collapsible and am looking for a case for protection, especially while traveling or when it is tossed in the camera bag with other bodies. I use a Leica 50 optical finder and do not want the never ready cases which were made for the LTM models (as I don't think they would fit with the finder and after 50 years the leather is probably dried out).

I looked through eBay and Photo Village but did not see anything which looked interesting. Suggestions?
 
IIIf with Cron, why you ever need another cameras?

Get used to wear camera on you while on travel. It will give you cool shots.
And get decent camera bag with soft dividers.
Here is zero reason to overload camera bag.
 
My 3f came with a Mr. Zhou half case. It’s really very nice for the price ($60?). I like that it has a leverage knob on the back for your thumb, as well as on the front. Luigis cost more but would have finer leather and feel great.

I have a Luigi on one IIIf (in my avatar) and a Zhou on my other IIIf. I like both but the Luigi w/strap is on another level.
 
Mr Zhou cases are excellent, especially for the price. I use one on my M8. The following pic shows one on a 111F
