Yes, I feel the same way! And you're right; I also believe that not everyone always has to understand everything. That would be too much. I use my cameras to take pictures. I usually take them with me. They are Commodities. Over time they get their patina automatically. I like that, it is part of the game. What is once bought by me, usually remains until the "bitter end". I am no one who buys and sells frequently and therefore has to look at the appearance of the equipment. For example: from time to time I even also take pictures with my first cameras from the mid-80s (Yashica and Nikon). They have been quite far around the world and look therefore accordingly. The X-Pro1 and X-T1 still also have their marks. And the X-PRO has now just gotten a little extra color, cause I like it. But as already stated, it is really simple: Not everyone needs to understand everything. Tastes obviously differ. But one can also simply accept other tastes/opinions, as long as they do not harm somebody. And therefore it is not necessary to discuss everything down to the last detail

I do not have to show anybody anything. No woulda coulda shoulda. It´s just that I like this look. That´s all ...

Is this really A PROBLEM? In any case, I was inspired by some of the photos:

ONA Brixton, dark truffle (got mine used =>much cheaper :-)) ) This bag doesn’t look like a classic camera bag, even though it is one. I love carrying it, it´s my every day bag with camera, lenses, MBP an many other stuff. I think you won’t find many other such well-made leather bags at a lower price. The leather is a dream! Here is something I found after I bought the Brixton. Looks similiar but for a much more reasonable price: https://www.paulmarius.fr/en/produits/lereporter-naturel http://www.amazon.de/PAUL-MARIUS-Ledertasche-Kameratasche-verstellbaren/dp/B00KHTWCLY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1449569808&sr=8-2&keywords=ledertasche+foto
