Originally posted by stevebrot I am trying to visualize how that would work around the grip.
I'm not sure if mine is the same as Phil's, but I also have a Pentax branded leather case for MX and ME with a winder attached.
It fits either with winder and any smaller M or A lens attached (e.g. an M50/1.4 is fine, a K50 variant is not).
It's just a pull-over with two snaps on the back and a zipper at the side to aid getting it in and out easily.
Not quite sure where I got it, whether with an MX or separately, but I think the latter (I seem to remember being on a hunt for something like it some years back).
It's quite nice. Obviously the camera must be removed to use, but for simple low-profile protection it's great. (I bet the MX just loves feeling that velour on its skin.)
Edit: and this one is definitely made of genuine leather. Different grains throughout on the various stitched panels.
Also, it's possible to shoot it reasonably quickly by unzipping the side and unsnapping only the right same side so you can pull the camera out but leaving the case attached to through the strap opening on the left side with it still snapped in place. I always just remove it in practice and only use the case if I'm chucking it into a larger bag.
