In praise of Aki-Asahi

[Andrew K]

well I'm as confused as you are wharris.....

Last time I ordered 2 sheets of leatherette from Camera Leathers - 1 turned up, 1 was missing. Sent several emails, heard nothing...

A few weeks ago I was given a Yashica LM in nice condition - except for the leather covering. Having seen some positive comments on another forum I thought I'd give Camera Leathers another go, so ordered a red leatherette covering...

Turned up 10 days later!!

So yes they are still in business - just seems they don't answer emails!

We should not forget though, that cameraleather.com offers service for more camera types and also much more choice in leathers.

I still want to find someone who will cut me a new leather cover for my RB-67 or my Rolleiflex from the back hide of a gator. THAT would be wicked cool. Gator belly would look too much like python - I want the knobby back for something truly bad-ass.
