Let me tempt those who haven't purchase :devil:

Nice case, does it come with the purchase of LX5?

I think the camera is out of stock at a lot of places. Saw on facebook that it's sold out at TK Foto and probably arriving in 2 weeks time. Then I called MS Color, also out of stock. And the person is not sure when it will be in stock. Luckily SLR Revolution still has them, so I made my reservation for the white one. $680 inclusive of 8GB card & casing.

Bought my lx5 from AP SLS and they showed me that it fits while mentioning that its for lx3 actually.. so Im a bit confused as well.

there is little diference in physical dimensions so the case should fit the LX5. The case is a optional accessory and is not the free case.

It does fit! Albeit a little tight for the LX5 since the hand grip on the LX5 is a little chunkier than that of the LX3, its a pretty snug fit!

Anybody got an idea of how much the case costs?
Was quoted $99 for the case..which I feel is a tad expensive.

It's for LX3 but fit well into LX5 and look retro in brown color.

Ricoh LC-1 cap not gonna fit LX5, what do you use to protect the precious Leica Summicron?

I got myself a filter, not so popular brand called "GGS", its still a multicoated UV filter, 32mm with 3M doubsided tape to stick on the DC Vario. Cost of getting the LA6 tube could be costly, and with lens converter tube, it wont be so handy already.

This item cost around S$35, RM80. Bought from JB. Just sharing this info...Cheers
