Looking for a leather fitted case

[004540]

Hello all! As of Friday afternoon I'm a proud new owner of an R-D1! Now I would like to find a fitted leather case for it. Any leads?

I posted this question on Epson's R-D1 site but there isn't much activity going on there.

Thanks in advance.

you could always get one of Luigi's cases, which are hand made. however slightly expensive ( to a budget minded student 😉 )

check out.

I just posted the same response on the "other" forum. I have a half-case from Luigi and love it.

I've got a Luigi case and strap too. Love it. Don't have the windows cut out in the back, provides great protection. Only caveat is button snaps are very tight, almost ripped out my fingernail once trying to pop it open. Ouch!

It is a very snug fit. Great quality.

I too am looking for a half case and saw a link awhile back that showed a leather case from Epson. Is that case only available in Japan or can it be purchased somewhere in the states. Does anyone know if it can be ordered from Japan and if so where?

Thanks everyone.

nvanallens, your cases look beautiful and i would love to have one but they are a little more than I want to spend right now. I need to build my M mount lens collection first.

I want the japanese R-D1 case. Epson are you listening?

Same here! I don't even care if I get the top. I just want the bottom half.
