What you need to do is get a strap, and take the camera with you everywhere you go. Forget about the Fogg bag, and the dessicant. Do not worship your Leica. Take pictures with it. It will love you, and reward you with pictures. If you keep it captive, it will only be a lump of metal and get old, and need CLA. Take it everywhere. Do not fear getting scratches on it. Do not buy cameraleder or any of that stuff. Go shoot pictures. Whew. If you did not notice, you are in the Leica Users Group. The Leica Polisher's group is down the hall and to the right, just past the broom closet. They are stroking their leicas with expensive cloths.
