I just received my D-Lux 4 Leica case (brown), and it was not what I expected:
1. It is MUCH! bigger than my D-Lux3 case. The Leica case I have for the DLux3 is approx the same size as the DLux3, it fits like a glove, it is the exact same style, where the cam slides in and the flap has a magnetic catch. The new case is about 50% larger. It has alot of extra space on either side of the camera.
2. The Dlux3 case easily fit in a Jacket pocket or purse, not this one.
3. The leather is very nice, but hard and inflexible.

Are there other cases that are smaller, but look about the same? Were others expecting a smaller case as well? The reason I bought the DLux4 was the size, I dont need a case that almost doubles it.
