This combination makes for a very compact system with all the advantages a Leica brings. You can pick it up for quite a reasonable sum. it will fit in to most pockets. If you get a slightly worn model, don't bother about a leather case, just use it like it is. The IIIc is extremely rugged and reliable. I have a 1949 shark skin model. it never let me down.
