Ricoh GXR M with Leica Summicron 35mm

[playman]

I have just put together a fantastic little combo of the GXR and the Summicron 35 f2.
its absolutly brilliant !!!

Has anyone else had any experience with this combo ?
I am now looking for a case, at the moment its being carried around in a Canon lens bag I got with a 24-70.

Will try and put up some experiences or photos soon.
if anyone has any questions, shoot away... (pun intended)

I saw a leather half case on EBay for Leica mount. Not sure the listing still there.

So which version of the 35 Summicron do you have? I use 8 element version 1 that I have had for 40 years and love it.

I use the Summicron 35 with the GXR and agree it is an excellent combination.

You asked about a suitable case. I use a small OP/TECH neoprene pouch which comfortably takes the GXR+A12mount+Summicron 35 or indeed a variety of other smaller Leica lenses. With the Summicron 35mm you can just manage to fit the camera in with the EVF2 attached.
