Yes
As the title really. I would like a nice, and yet inexpensive, case for my Bessa R3A but the official ones are very expensive.

Cheers

I'm not honestly sure if either of these places can help you, but they may be worth a try. Robert White's do stock rangefinder accessories both new and used:

I've noticed you're in Cheshire, so you could try Bob Rigby's near Macclesfield and Real Cameras in Manchester, both stock used gear:

http://www.realcamera.co.uk/

Failing that, I guess e-bay may have something but I don't personally like buying from them. Best of luck with it.

Not sure how expensive the official ones are, but the ones at Leicatime look gorgeous - hand stitched leather jobs... Probably half the cost of the body though :shrug:

Veerrry nice. Veeerrry expensive. Cheapest ones seem to be around £100 but it was worth a look for the long explanations in amusing English as to why he is so busy. :LOL:

Just found one for 20 squids at Vintage Camera, so may go gor that as it is an official Voigtlander one.

If you want cheap and cheerful I have hundreds of cases kicking around from camera's I have collected over the years. If you give me the camera's dimension's I'll go and have a rumage for you and see if I have a matching sized case.

There are these hand made and stitched cases on E-bay, open to offers as well.

Cheers Richard, very nice but not cheap. Maybe a Christmas pressie though?

Thanks Jared, I'll get back to you later with the dimensions. If nothing else it will be ok till I get a proper Voigtlander one.

I like the look of the ones on the Evil bay, but I really don't like the red stitching, much preferring the black all over look!

Although I must admit there's a theme going on here as all my mountain bike parts are black and ermm black.

They had a black on black version in their shop.
