This ranks right up there with Remy's pink, then gold, M2!

joe, kind of bright for my taste, but it is probably consolation to know that it now looks even less like one of those horrid, fiddly german cameras.

Looks pretty sweet, joe!
I keep thinking about recovering one of my cameras, but I can't bring my self to remove the leather on them--haven't yet got a working camera with ratty leather. I do have this Retina 1a that will be needing a preventative CLA soon...maybe I'll ask that the leather be removed while the other work is being done...dunno that I'll pick red, though.
Nice job!

the cover on the s2 came off with ease. i did it while watching t.v.
the glue was a bit subborn but was just a matter of time spent with the goo gone and scraper.
i did the m3 will equal ease.
it's easier than working on a lens😉
and no canned air is involved!

joe: Well, I for one back you on your choice. First, on that camera it DOES seem quite appropriate. I don't know why I feel that way, I guess it's just a gut feeling, but let's not get my gut into this ... I'm trying to keep it from growing any more.
Second, the Nikon Puritans be damned! Cameras are to be enjoyed; as you've stated it's a USER even if it is in Sunday-go-to-church clothing.
Better dead than red.

thanks earl!
it seems a natural to me as i love red and see red and black as 'one' colour - it's my favourite colour combo.
the chrome just adds a nice shine!

thanks brian.
the original pieces peeled off each in one piece, no ripping at all.
did you want it to make a template?
