This could be Leica's answer to weatherproofing the M10.

Wow- that is rare.
Nikon's selection of cases is amazing. Cases for almost every accessory, every occasion.

I believe they're now called "blimps." Companies still make them for dSLRs for use on movie sets, etc., e.g., http://bit.ly/gK2YNU

Don't forget that Hasselblad made a blimp for the EL camera in the 60's and 70's.

An old photobud was a still photographer and worked on film sets in the 60's, 70's and 80's. He had blimps for his motorized Canon A-1's.
They looked like the old style cases for electric shavers on steroids. |
