Advertisement Posted November 13, 2013 Posted November 13, 2013 Hi jcraf, Take a look here Disappointed with the new M240 Box. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
george + Posted November 13, 2013 Share #42 Posted November 13, 2013 I think the top drawer should be on the bottom and the bottom drawer in the middle. Better yet, their location should be a purchase time option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
algrove Posted November 13, 2013 Share #43 Posted November 13, 2013 Well, I cut a pin hole in my box and carry it around as a backup to my M should the need arise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabbo Posted November 13, 2013 Share #44 Posted November 13, 2013 i've covered mine with gaffer's tape for stealth…until it was confiscated at the airport for looking like a suspicous package Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted November 13, 2013 Share #45 Posted November 13, 2013 I'm planning a trip to India so which leather lens cases should I take with my M240 box? Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bideford Posted November 13, 2013 Share #46 Posted November 13, 2013 Well, I cut a pin hole in my box and carry it around as a backup to my M should the need arise. I tried that but had to send it back to Solms to get the pin hole calibrated with the box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveBK Posted November 14, 2013 Share #50 Posted November 14, 2013 What case can I get for the box? I've been a big fan of ULINE Box cases since before the metric system. This is probably the right model for the M Box - 12 x 12 x 12" 275 lb. Double Wall Corrugated Boxes S-4712 - Uline Note that this is PREMIUM case, full 1/4" thick, with double the protection for your valuable M Box. You can see the full specs of the case here, I think you will be pleased - http://www.uline.com/PDF/MS-4040.PDF I am not a ULINE employee, just a very happy customer.

diogenis Posted November 14, 2013 Share #51 Posted November 14, 2013 Jokes aside, Leica should stop trying to replicate Apple -if it does, it seems it does in boxing- because 1) it can't (Apple makes spaceships/motherships) and 2) It doesn't have to. So, in that respect Rick's concerns are for real and the world doesnt just need/can't afford more of those marketting videos of Ivy and the gang explaining in white background and a silly piano tune what is a product and how it must be made...

acordes Posted November 14, 2013 Share #53 Posted November 14, 2013 Still waiting for my box, ordered Feb 2013. Looking forward to use the manual drawer - and hope the I can see the box much better in low light, with less grain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
diogenis Posted November 14, 2013 Share #54 Posted November 14, 2013 You miss the point completely. I am relieved everyone else got it. Oh ok but still, I wouldn't want Leica's DNA to mix with Apple's in any way, and thats partly how I feel about those boxes and all. On the other hand it's good that companies are now raising thebar in quality like Apple and Leica have done and do, or because Apple has such a huge success.

Guest borge Posted November 14, 2013 Share #58 Posted November 14, 2013 The boxes doesn't even match the color of the camera. How crap is that. Silver camera = Silver box. Black camera = Black box. Stealth camera (MM, M9-P) = Simple black box without brandings, red dots and with hidden compartments for all those juicy secrets. How hard can it be Leica???
