Posh Camera Case

[Clark.EE]

Just curious, has anyone got one of these?
Seems on the expensive side to me!

I am shamed to report that although I did not get this particular one, I did get the crocodile version from Luigi's leica time for my Monochrom. Cheaper and better made, in my opinion (400 Euro), and worth EVERY penny.

No but I have the 'Arte di Mano' case in the Minerva Black colour:

Top-notch quality and fit.

May be a limit on the number of Alligators allowed to kill each season?
But is a beautiful skin!!

Here's a video of them making a Leica X1 case....true artists.

A little pricey for me.

I ended up with the A&A Half Case for the M9, M4-2 and X2 as I like their simplicity, fit and finish. They're reasonably priced if still not cheap.

Those cases don't overlap the Play and Menu button like the Luigi cases.

Am I missing something?

400 Euros for a Camera Case.
Thats almost an early 50 Summicron.

It must be a profitable business. Once they've used up all the skin for half-cases, they can sell the rest of the beast to IKEA for meatballs. TW

Ouch. Proof if proof be needed that even dead crocodiles can still bite!

No. But they do make empty wallets.

Hmmm . . . if they can make 100 of these / alligator, then a dead alligator is worth about $98,000. You guys in Florida are living in a gold mine.

 

[Vince Lupo]

Yes they make camera bags -- they're on their website.

 

[mervynyan]

I know someone grow alligators as business in Florida, suppler for high-end Italian leather firms. no a leather fan.

I don't use a camera case, but these look as well made as the A&A or Luigi. The premium is in the exotic skin and though these skins aren't as rare or expensive as prices often denote, $1000 isn't bad for this type of thing (at least when considering the other similar options available)

 

[Vince Lupo]

Camera bags and other things on their site....

It's crocodile, not alligator.
Might get a discount if you send 'em your pet croc though.

 

[Rob-F]

Yeah, I'd say that is a bit too pricey for me. I've got three Luigi cases, though! Probably just as good, too.
