Can anyone recommend a snug small neoprene case for Q3 43 for travel.

Thanks!

This is an easy one: OP/TECH USA Soft Camera and Rangefinder pouch. The Rangefinder size fits the Q3 43 perfectly. I’ve taken it on several trips already, just put camera in pouch and put that in whatever backpack or carryon you’re already taking with you.

I tried to look for it on amazon but could not find a similar case, would you have a link or a model number as this is exactly what I am looking for.

I tried this - and returning it.

Camera with thumb support or the Hoage lens hood (which allows filters) will not fit in here.

that's strange, I have both those things and it fits perfectly, like when you put on a wetsuit, the Neoprene stretches a bit. sorry if I mislead you, I love mine. I'm just packing to go to North Carolina this weekend and slipped my camera into this case (with thumb support, soft shutter release, and Hoage lens hood.)

Hi would the Q3 28 with the hood and the lens cap and with the thumb support fit into this?  This case appears very convenient for walk around the city.

I would think so since the Q3 28 lens is a millimeter or two shorter than the 43. Be warned though, some photographers here don’t like the snug fit and have therefore concluded it doesn’t fit at all. I’m flying commercial and traveling light right now and it’s the perfect case for me to throw in a backpack.

Hi thank you very much for the clarification. Appreciate it.

Have you tried the neoprene case by Leica?

I use it for my Q3-43. Right size, fits perfectly. I tried several models in the Leica store, it was for me the best choice as I just want to protect the camera while traveling or hiking, I just put it in my daypack.
Cost: 85 EUR in Germany. You surely can find a cheaper model on amazon.
