Picture of my Classic M at >http://www.streetphoto.net/index-tools.html > >Steve I just had a look. I have one of those bags, made by Leitz (or for Leitz.) Bought it around 30 years ago. Personally, I hated it as a camera bag so it got relegated to a ski bag that carries my gloves, goggles, face mask, wax, and edge sharpener. Works wonderfully for this. What I use for my M cameras and carry around Hasselblad is the following bag (I have two, one with Domke inserts, the other with Billingham inserts) is: http://www.backsaver.com search for "backasver bag" and then click on the picture of the bags, then click on "enlarge picture.". The strap clips on (as you can see in the picture) so I replaced it with a stretchy OP/Tech photo bag strap. These are cool bags. Believe me, I have nearly every bag ever invented. I've found these bags to be the greatest. JMPO Jim
