Leather half case for the K-1?

Stonewall Brigade · 06-25-2019, 06:03 PM

I am really surprised to be unable to find a protective leather half case for the K-1. Nothing from Ricoh, Lugi, Gariz, KenjiLeather or any other common aftermarket vendors. Anyone have a lead to a source?

Wow, that takes me back. I'd forgotten all about those things.

Yes I saw that, it looks like some Leica accessory from the 1950s.

I am quite liking these ! Yes a throwback to the last century but why not.

Not the look you were going for?
