Luigi Case ISO Cutout

[JayC]

Thanks to endustry, I have a LeicaTime 1/2 case for my M6. It does not have the cuout for the ISO dial, so the back of the case kind of bows as it has to pass over the protruding dial.

Question 1: How many years will it take for the leather to mold itself and really conform to the dial?

Qeustion 2 (since the answer to Q1 is probably a long time): Who has a cutout on their Luigi case and wishes they did not?

I emailed Luigi and he will cut the hole in the back for me.

I have a luigi case for my M7 and comes with the cutout. I doubt I will regret having a cutout for it because I often use the exposure compensation dial.

Yeah, I could see the "advantage" on an M7 with the exposure adjustment. I was just wondering about the "look" and/or M6 users.

mine has the cutout on my m6 and I am happy with it that way. I requested it when I ordered it from Luigi.

I specifically ordered my Leicatime case for my M6TTL without the cutout for reasons of rigidity and aesthetics. I found that the sueded interior of the case conformed rather quickly to the contour of the ISO dial. I really don't notice any protusion of the case at the back of the camera. Give it a try as is -- if you need the cutout, I'm sure that it could be done at a later date.

I have a cut out and prefer this arrangement. My next will be the same.
