Leica CL Glamour Photos

my g/f's CL =) (I bought her that instead of paying back my debts :D )

... with Carl Zeiss G Biogon 21/2.8 converted to Leica M mount, handmade leather case in black. At last I can carry the CL camera horizontally! Great!

The lens rear element seems to clear the metering arm by a comfortable distance.

The other with a self-made strap, Kyoto style autumn leaves motif and with the Rollei Sonnar 40mm F2.8 HFT.

Uh oh, was looking for a VC 40/1.4 for my Epson.. The seller also had a CL. I hope this won't work as a gateway to something bigger (and more expensive)!

Pretty bad. Did you have it shipped international surface mail? That's what they typically look like after arriving.
 
hahaha I bet. That one went to Sherry Krauter for a fixing by fed ex air. Hope she can do something with it. Everyone here says she is the best. Cant wait to get it back!
 
OK, here is mine. Took me 3 hours replacing the fake leather with real leather. The hardest part is trimming the leather to the correct thickness on the edges and trim out the underside for the bends on four corners of the camera.

They are little gems. My eldest son took one of mine with him when he was deployed to Afghanistan and then Iraq. Just worked without complaint.
 
Yesterday my Cl arrived and today she got in contact with her mate,
a Summicron 50/2,0 with some dings and dents but good mechanik and clear optic
(and it had a very low price)
