Another old saying is “Buy it first and if you don’t like it sell it on and try again” some times though we don’t listen and do it over and over again........ like this bloody Q2 and it’s 28mm focus view.

sturkel Posted April 6, 2019 Share #24 Posted April 6, 2019 14 hours ago, Donzo98 said: 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... SO this is the Leica Q case from Leica. Bought from Adorama. If it fits I don't mind the battery and card access . In the past I used Sugru to make a front grip. Worked like a charm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am considering getting the original Q case. I received my Q2 late last week and my Arti di Mano Q case did fit the Q2 body - minus the battery/card access like you said.

sturkel Posted April 12, 2019 Share #30 Posted April 12, 2019 So I got the original Q Leica case from Adorama today at a price of $165.00 It fits perfectly other than the battery and card access which for me is not a problem. In fact, I like the fact the bottom hatch closes the bottom nicely. I like how the case and the thumb insert fit nice together and will most likely do away with the thumb rest. At $165 this was a great purchase and fits my needs. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfunnell Posted April 13, 2019 Share #31 Posted April 13, 2019 (edited) After looking at the options I was almost going to buy the Artedimano however by the time I added the options of opening base for both battery and card it was over $600Au I decided to buy the : ARTISAN & ARTIST* LMB-Q (for Leica Q/Q2) BLACK LEATHER HALF CASE NEW from Popflash as I have had many of these on previous Leica and they feel great. Great price for top quality at $138US https://www.popflash.com/LMB-Q-BLK Edited April 13, 2019 by rfunnell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturkel Posted April 13, 2019 Share #32 Posted April 13, 2019 So I had looked at these as well not a fan of the snaps in the front. I created my own finger hold in the front for added support. At $138 still a great option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK! Posted April 17, 2019 Share #34 Posted April 17, 2019 Will the original Q2 half case from Leica https://store.leica-camera.com/de/de/protektor-q2-leder-schwarz allow access to battery and SD-card. I cannot find any hint on this... The Arte Di Mano is tempting and it seems quite a few people do not regret having spent so much money on it... Thanks TK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks TK I have the Arte Di Mano half case and strap on my Q classic and don't regret at all what it cost. They're beautifully crafted and made with the finest materials. The fit is perfect. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iRandom Posted April 25, 2019 Share #36 Posted April 25, 2019 I see that the Arte Di Mano with battery access door has a thick bottom plate. Is it metal or a really thick piece of leather? I have a Lim case for my Q but find that the metal bottom plate adds quite a bit of weight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leica Guy Posted April 25, 2019 Share #37 Posted April 25, 2019 Arte De Mano construction is a “leather” material over an aluminum shell. Very strong and dimensionally stable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
T25UFO Posted April 25, 2019 Share #38 Posted April 25, 2019 Just on the subject of fitting - the Q1 case will fit the Q2 but you cannot easily use the thumb wheel.
