Arte di mano
Handcrafted by JnK
Nikon ZF case
Open type / Screw fixed.
Sample leather - Horween Shell cordovan black ( Vegetable tanned / USA)
Thread - Black (Serafil / German)
.
Design,
Arte di mano's achievements so far are based on the Leica scene.
Although it is a small workshop in Korea, it is loved by Leica users around the world and is solidifying its position in the global market as a brand that produces Leica cases of the highest quality and highest price in the world.
The combination of straight lines and curves, which are elaborately and delicately completed, harmonizes with the device to achieve a high level of aesthetic perfection, and along with the perfect fit,
it can safely protect your precious device from dents and impacts.
.
Now, the flow of thought itself is naturally incorporated into the design.
The creator has also been a Nikon FM2 user for a long time, so he has a strong attachment to Nikon's retro attempts. Unlike ZFC, this ZF has a grip with a very ambiguous location, height, and shape.
I wanted to find a compromise somewhere in between that would improve the awkward grip of the Nikon ZF, while appeasing the design disappointments caused by the grip's protrusion.
Actually, I drew the lines thinking only about better grip, but I couldn't miss the design, so I drew it countless times and refined the front view.
The design aspect may be very subjective, but at least I think the case will affect your better grip. ;)
.
In the case of the rear, after much thought and trial, an open-type design was completed.
Although it is a simple part to finish, the thumb rest was designed to provide a better grip while taking into account the dial's operability.
Of course, we cannot guarantee this - there may be differences from hand to hand, but the natural grip on the front and back blends well with the lines on the front, so you can expect an increase in grip.
Sample leather : Rally volpe
The case design with complex lines takes into account the arrangement and operation of all buttons and does not cause any negative interference
with viewing and touching the screen or operation of the buttons and control dials. With this well-considered design, you can protect your device. .
The same goes for the sides. Adding my design by naturally following the lines without compromising the distance from the top or the curves of the body itself.
Even if it's a very cumbersome curve.
And the other side.
This is also a linear design that takes the device's design into consideration as much as possible, and this is where various considerations are needed again.
Below, we'll explain your options in more detail.
It is basically an open-type design, but by inserting a custom-made metal implant considering its shape, it is able to protect the device more safely with perfect fitting and durability.
Since the camera body is on the large side, a lot of attention was paid to overall fit and grip.
We are confident that it will provide minimal increase in bulk and a better grip compared to without a case.
.
Full consideration for swivels and rotations,
In the case of the Nikon ZF case designed this time, the thickness was reduced by about 20% compared to the average recipe.
The reason was because of the rotating section after this swivel.
Because case interference occurs in the rotation section, the thickness was adjusted in response.
Basically, it is set to the minimum thickness to not lose rigidity, so the thread and the edge of the display may rub at the more protruding stitch part, but with the case installed,
it can swivel up to the maximum as well as rotate the entire radius at that point.
It is true that the work is more cumbersome and it is burdensome to proceed with leather such as cordovan, which is especially less stable in thickness adjustment, but if this problem is not resolved, the design of the case will block the mechanical operation of the camera, so it is a design that must proceed.
(Some leather options may be limited in the future.)
Of course, for this to happen, the premise must be that it is not only thin but also has a perfect fit with a high level of adhesion.
:)
.
Fitting,
Fitting is where Arte di Mano's work is significantly different from other global brands. We spend an incomparable amount of time to ensure a perfect fit, matching each and every shape of the body.
The difficulty level of fitting is moderate and requires sufficient time compared to other models.
The time required for fitting varies depending on the shape of the body.
This is because the target quality, not the production time, is set, and the target point is clearly high.
And we recognize that this is one of the reasons why people love Arte di mano's cases.
:)
Sample leather : Rally bordo
You can feel the difference in level of fitting just by holding it once.
Screw fixed system,
Our screw fixed system offer that you can fix case to camera strongly.
And besides, you can use tripod without take off case.
You can use it with coin.
Because this bolt connect to camera directly, it is perfect for use your heavy body with tripod.

In cowhide, the thickness of the dermal layer is usually considered to be around 0.2-0.5 mm, whereas most of the shell layers produced in cordovan have a thickness of 1 mm or more. Corresponding to the dermal layer, it is a very special leather with strong surface resilience along with the firmness of the tissue itself.

Finish - Matt type, Belly (back cut)
Henglong, a Singapore-based company owned by LVMH, the parent company of Louis Vuitton, is a world-class crocodile skin tannery that produces high-quality crocodile skins. Crocodile leather is superior to other types of leather such as cowhide in terms of durability because it has excellent surface stiffness in addition to its unique texture and unique pattern.
Nile crocodile is regarded as the highest quality crocodile hide along with Porosus, a saltwater crocodile, and the Alligator, which lives mainly in the United States.
In the case of a glossy-type crocodile, its luster disappears when it is not taken care of while using it, whereas a matte-type crocodile leather has the attractiveness of natural light coming up nicely while using it and aging over time. Like cowhide, matte type leather has less surface treatment compared to glossy type, so it has no choice but to use raw hide with less scarring, and it is traded at a higher price than glossy crocodile at the same grade/size.
If you see the work of Arte di mano, which combines the finest crocodile leather manufactured by Henglong and the refined Arte di mano craftsmanship recognized in the world market, you are sure that you will no longer be able to find materials and quality beyond that.
