Travelling Light. Can't afford an ETRUX case, so...

Nice as it would be to have a period case (ETRUX or ETRIN) for my Leica III, the cost and condition rule that option out. Instead I use a small ONA case (from a sale) and a few old Rollei cases.

• Outside strap: case 1: FB-07 lens hood, case 2: SBOOI
• Internal: modified lens pouch taped inside (for when needed)

This makes for a small and easily portable system.

What do you use when travelling light with your Leica?

For traveling light I carry a Barnack with a collapsible Elmar or Summicron and a Voigtlander VC meter on a Domke Gripper strap under my jacket, or unbuttoned long sleeve shirt in the hot months. And I carry a spare FILCA cassette in my jeans coin pocket.

My "heavy" kit is a Domke F-X5A. Room for a Barnack with collapsible Elmar or Summicron, Leitz table-top tripod w/ KGOON and a light meter. If I take the Digisix meter rather than the Weston I also have room for the 90/4 Elmar. A couple of FILCA cassettes a cable release and the 90mm VF (if needed) fit nicely in the outer pockets of the bag. 

The F-X5A in olive with the logo removed does not look at all like a camera bag.
