Pentax Club Soft Case

hefty1 · 2010-04-08T23:19:09+0100

I picked up another camera kit this week (LX+Winder+Grip+Strap+Screens, M35-70/2.8-3.5, A70-210/4, M28/2.8, M50/1.4, M85/2, M100/4 Macro plus original hoods, cases and other bits). Amongst it all was something I've never seen before and Google isn't helping for once - so has anyone here ever come across one of these? It's a black leather soft case and was holding the A70-210 (just barely). It's thicker - better padded - than most I've seen before but the bit that intrigued me was the 'Pentax Club' embossed on the outside. Anybody seen one of these before or know anything about them? Most of the kit is going straight on eBay next week but I may offer this case here on the forum if there are any collectors looking for one... :)

I recognise the logo on your case and it was definitely from the same club. The mug just has the Pentax logo though and says "Simply Hold a Pentax" on it. It was offered by the club but may have originated from Pentax themselves.

Just out of interest, we also have a Pentax umbrella, calculator, plus demo stands for cameras and lenses.

Best regards, John

Cheers for that John - mystery solved then.

I have to say, for a promotional goodie it's actually one of the nicest soft cases I've come across - better than the genuine Pentax ones if truth be told.
