Original Luigi's, cases for OTHER CAMERAS
since the year 1998 !
please, read carefully...

Dear visitors of this page(s), let me finally introduce "officially" my very special SS Tripod "flush" SCREW, the one that some (few) buyers of my cases already knows... Sincerily, I am quite proud of this my idea ! Unlike Leica cases screws, and, as far as I know, unlike ALL cases screws, this special "Luigi's" screw still leaves the case bottom perfectly flat, without the uncomfortable protrusion on the bottom, that prevents the case (and the camera) to rest firmly even on the most flat surfaces ! His design permit to easily operate it with any thin coins, and in the lower part there is the useful TRIPOD hole, with the smaller thread, the one actually used by ALL makers.

It is quite costly, Eur 60 each (fitted), because: 1. every screw is hand made with a lathe - 2. the screw is all made in solid stainless steel, of which I am a fanatic user, being me a "boat's man"... - 3. to fit well it is a not easy job, it takes a lot of time and care, and there is always the risk to ruine a NEW case !
 
ATTENTION: the "Bottom SCREW" is not fitted in our cases by default !
It will be fitted ONLY upon a clear request, and a related payment for it.Here finally offered our half case for Bessa Voigtlander R2a-R3a (by Cosina)

Here two cases samples for Bessas differently made, from the new "basic line", which
peculiarities are: NO hand stitcking, different (still fine) calf leather outside, different

me that he is VERY pleased with the purchase, and he sent me even a picture...

series are perfectly USEABLE ALSO FOR THE LEICA M !!! Then, 1 case, 2 cameras !
