Seeking advice re SMALL case for X100v

I'm looking for a simple minimalist case/pouch/bag for an X100v only, nothing else at all. If I can fit a spare battery in the case, then the case is too big for my purposes.

This is so that I can take the camera with me, reasonably protected when I'm traveling light, whether air of motorcycle, on a long trip.

I've seen the half cases - pretty (and expensive) but definitely not what I'm looking for.

I have a Billingham for when I want to take additional lenses, accessories etc, so this case will be for a different, going-light, minimalist kind of travel.

Local shops have little selection, so there is nowhere I can go and physically look unfortunately.

• Don't want a half case, nor what used to be called an (n)ever-ready case
• As close to the size of the camera as possible - so there's little additional bulk
• Don't want any extra pockets etc

Someone out there has already bought the perfect case and I'd like your help please!

I have the same question for an XPro3, but to keep things simple I'll make a separate post.

Thanks in advance...

Suggest OpTechusa.com where you will find a strap/pouch finder.

I use a Think Tank 'Mirrorless Mover 5' for my X100F...nothing else and it pretty much fits like a glove. It does have an extra pocket on the front, but I keep the plastic rain cover in it. Not much room for anything else.

I have the large OpTech camera pouch for my RX100V7 and it is just what you are looking for. Use with a strap or attach to your belt.

Thanks all - I'll order both both the OpTech pouch and the Mover 5 and return one.
