Hi Leon,
I have the black military holster w/ the strap/buckle & lifting strap as well. It appears that the stitching is original black cotton thread. The back of the holster is marked: P.08, bmd/41 & an eagle/swastika/WaA640. The leather & stitching are perfect. The pistol has only the slightest wear on the side plate & muzzle crown. This Luger must have only been rarely fired. I couldn't resist taking it to the range to see just what it's like to pull the trigger on such an elegant piece of machinery. The trigger pull is very light & extremely crisp. It points quite naturally & the recoil is mild. I bought a post war Mauser Parabellum P.08 framed Luger to use as a shooter.

I was considering that particular Sony Mavica because it uses a CD that goes straight from the camera to the pc tower & you're in business. (I'm computer challenged... really!) I'll look into the Cyber Shot.
Best,
stymie
