1/2 case options for the Q2

I’ve always bought Arte De Mano 1/2 cases for my M and previous Q bodies. This time around I got a really nice Leica 1/2 case for my M10 so was wondering what all you lucky Q2 owners have put on your new Q2 bodies. 

Acording to the Arte De Mano website they are Pre Ordering them. The Manager at Leica Malaysia store says he has half cases coming with the Q2 body’s so interesting to see what they look like as I’m assuming they will be Leica brand.

No case so far... 

wakting on an option that allows batt/ SD access.  

 

Yes it looks like the only option for that is via Arte De Mano but even they don't have it yet

Saw this... ordering mine.

Expensive... but worth it I think.

Ordered :)

Such nice options... I went for the Achab black leather, full access to SD and battery, no back. $499.00 (free shipping).

Does anyone know if the Q case will fit the Q2 minus the battery/and card access? I am considering getting the original Q case.    

My understanding is it won’t fit properly. They are now taking orders for the Q2 case  I’ve been told I should have it in about 4 weeks time

It does. I've been using the leica case from my old Q until the ones for the Q2 are available. It's just annoying to have to unscrew it everytime you want to remove the sd card or battery.

499 for a case is pretty steep. the price for the leica brand ones is way more reasonable. are the adm ones really worth more than twice as much? 

I would never buy a case that did not allow access to the SD/battery. I can't imagine why anyone would want to take the case off to access the SD. I take out my SD almost daily to import pics.

The Leica case for the old Q allowed access, not sure if the new case will.

Of course the ADM isn't worth it... but paying 5K for a camera is insane too. :)

The ADM site is really cool... you can fully customize leather type, color.

So I was able to get a new Q case for $165 and as for as the SD card with 128 cards not an issue.  Same goes for battery life.  I always worry about bumps and nicks while traveling with a camera. See how it fits on the Q2, but I hear it not a problem.

I'll post my results.

My case and strap are reasonable compared to the W2 price. The ADM cases slip on and off without having to screw something on or off....... simple and elegant like me.

What kind of case did you get?? A new Q case for 165 seems like a great deal...

The size of the SD card has nothing to do with it in my situation... I literally shoot a few pics at a time, then import and edit.

For some it's no big deal to have access... I guess you are one of thiose people.

Looking forward to seeing your case choice...
