A unique leather holster for phones like the DMC-CM1
1

For me the CM 1 is only a working tool which sometimes have to be transported in the rain and have to handle a few collisions or falls. So I needed a bag that really protects the CM1 and is not just a stylish accessory for the red carpet or for fashion shows. I found nothing corresponding and therefore I have invented something for me.

Good quality and workmanship, However be prepared to have security/law enforcement to randomly take notice of this case. Seeing how and where you carry it. otherwise, in this day and age, the smart device is an extension of one's hands.. having it in a case like this restricts the ease as to which the device can be removed quickly.

In my opinion, Nikon's KeyMission 80 holder (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1283246-REG/nikon_25937_camera_holder_for_keymission.html) would be more suited as to allow on easier access to the device and would be placed in clear view without suspicions.

Re: A unique leather holster for phones like the DMC-CM1

Hi Toaster, it is my luck that I am living in Germany and the Police ist asking and then shooting and not shooting and asking. The question to your recomandation is: I know the Nikon 80 and I thought  it is the only camera which fits in this special Nikon bagpacker holster. And the 80 ist a waterproofed camera, the CM1 not. So I think the holster have not to protect the  camera against Rain.

Best

I merely suggested that the case being black, looks very official as if it was an ammo case.as used by the police. By changing the color, brown etc the case would less obvious and may even be overlooked.

Ich habe nur vorgeschlagen, dass der Fall schwarz ist, sieht sehr offiziell, als ob es ein Munition case.as von der Polizei verwendet wurde. Durch das Ändern der Farbe, braun etc. der Fall wäre weniger offensichtlich und kann sogar übersehen werden.
