Case for M9 - Kando Case??

[The Fondler]

Have the lucky few of you M9 owners seen this case?

I got one in New York for my M8 and 90mm Summicron. It's really beautiful and seems a fitting accessory to such an elegant camera. It actually fits the 90mm, which surprised me. Any of you guys have any experience with it?

Looks well made but a little too small. I use the A&A Torpedo and am even ordering another from PopFlash. This Kando case does look like it is VERY high in quality and looks to be perfect for one who need to only carry a camera with no/few accessories.

I used to have a Torpedo bag actually, but I sold it last year when I got this:

It's also waterproof, but has more options for holding accessories. The cycle of bag-buying never ends, huh? I guess I am doing my part to help the economy.

I am like you and have a closet of cases. You do get a few that are just right

I am thinking that a Half-Case and a Nikon CS-9 or CS-10 will be perfect.

Then the S-Mount adapter on it will look right.

I was actually at Photo Village yesterday picking up a strap and looked at the Kando cases. They are really well made and a bit bigger than they appear in the pictures. Can easily accommodate an M body with a 90 on it.

I'm glad you guys are posting about the Kando. It is made by a great company (Black Label Bags) right in Brooklyn, NYC and it DOES fit an M9 + 90mm. The designer used to work for A&A and he went out on his own.

Also, the leather they import from Italy is some of the nicest I have seen on a camera case. We really like this companies bags and straps.

I think we'll see some promising products from these guys! We are working on becoming their distributers.

I am impressed these are made in New York! It is so nice to hold something that supports and stimulates the local economy.

Post script-- I also like to support the German economy, ha ha!

Anyone who is waiting, we have received another batch of Kando cases in black.

The best artisan leather case ever made.

Cheers
