Hallo Forum, seit nun genau 30 Tagen besitze ich meine Leica Q. Ich bin verliebt in diese und möchte sie nicht mehr her geben. Nach normaler Nutzung und leichtem Kontakt mit Fototasche, Tisch und Kameragurt, stelle ich nun einen Patina Effekt an der Q fest. Die Gegenlichtblende hat schon ihre stellen und an der Oberseite habe ich eine leichte Kerbe. Das Gehäuse scheint recht empfindlich zu sein. Da ich parallel noch eine M8.2 besitze, kenne ich den Effekt von dieser. Jedoch dauerte es dort Jahre bis dieser Eintrat. Nun meine Frage an die Q Benutzer... ist das normal?

Hello there. I have been entertaining the idea of buying a half case for my Leica MP. I have mixed views about the half cases for these fine cameras. On one hand I want to protect this valuable piece of delicate machinery from harm as much as I can but on the other hand I don't want an extra layer of thickness while holding the camera which has already perfect dimensions. While I think of the Leicas and the cameras in general which have survived to this day I see a lot of them have some sort of leather case that protected them for all those years. But when I see the cameras of pros that have been brassed beautifully I admire them even more because of those marks. What are your thoughts on this subject? Does a Leica need a protection from harm? Should a black paint Leica brass over time? Will a Leica brass no matter what the intentions of its user? Does a half case make the camera thicker in a way that it affects its usability? Or do half cases make the camera easier to hold? If used with a half case, does black paint Leicas gather an uneven patina?
