Can someone tell me the importance of the pin in the bottom plate? I was advised when removing the bottom plate to keep it as a spare in my camera bag, whilst using the grip because this pin which I have marked makes an electrical connection when the bottom plate is fixed in place. Without the plate the camera does not take photos as far as I can see. I think this pin rests on the SD card outer enclosure when the plate is in place. Just curious that's all, it is in way a problem to me, just curious.

Hi I am thrilled today to have received my first ever Leica. Currently selling all my Canon gear on eBay to pay for my second hand M-E with 35mm Summicron. Taken about 10 photos before work and I love it already. I'm finding it impossible though to find out when grip accessory works with the M-E that I can use the hand loop on. I plan to get back into Macro with the 90mm f4.0 one day and possibly the 21mm Super Elmar. Can anyone shed any light for me please? Any other accessories you'd recommend would be appreciated too.

I noticed this on Amazon and wondered if anyone has tried it for the Q yet. I have heard great things about the J.B. Designs grips for other cameras and think this looks pretty nice while allowing access to the battery compartment. Let me know your thoughts, always great to learn from others experience! http://www.amazon.com/J-B-Camera-Designs-Wood-Leica/dp/B0128QZ76U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1448197017&sr=8-2&keywords=Leica+q+grip

Does anyone have any Thumbs Up type of solutions that work well on the X Vario? That beautiful, heavy lens out front is leaving me with the desire for a bit more grip for my thumb. I already own the hand grip and I have a finger loop on the way, but nothing beats a thumbs up, at least in my experience. Open to any and all suggestions though - thanks.

Does anyone make one? I've trawled through these threads and the wider interwebs and it would seem not. Unless anyone here knows better?

I've tested several strap and grip combinations for carrying the Q around in shooting-ready mode: - the neck strap which comes with the camera - Leica grip and neck strap - Gordy's sling attached to either the tripod mount or the side slug and worn diagonally across body - Gordy's wrist strap only attached to the side slug - Thumbs Up grip with neck strap - Leica grip and Thumbs Up simultaneously with neck strap but for me the best solution has been the Gordy's wrist strap attached to the tripod mount in combination with the Thumbs Up -grip. With this combination I can hang

Hi, The R8 I purchased on eBay came with the motor and that's great. I would, however, like to get the standard battery compartment for the R8 for times when I don't want the extra weight. Can anyone recommend a source for this part? I have been in touch with Dave Elwell of Leica Camera in NJ and he says there are no such parts in stock in the US or Germany. Thanks in advance, Danny dszpiro@gmail.com

First off, for those who have held the CL... How does it feel? ... Smooth like the T? Cold like the T? Ever so slightly padded like the Q? Do you feel the need for more grip / control?

To my new Q I've added the LIM's half case with grip, which is, in one unit, equivalent to the Leica Q grip and the Leica half case, minus the screw hole for the Leica finger grip. Cost around $100. Excellent workmanship, no shortcomings at all. They have a deluxe model that integrates a very trim Arca-style plate into the bottom.

Why no silver version of the Grips... Neither the normal or multifunctional grip come in silver chrome like my M is.

Dear Leica Friends, recently aquired a R4 with motor winder R4 and mechanical grip. After mounting the gear I focused and pressed the mechanic button of the grip, continuous peep sounds prior to shooting. It´s annoying! Could not find any hint in the manuals of the motor winder nor of the camera. Does anyone know how to get rid of this sound? - would be great!!!

I wrote up a small article on the Luigi cases. I took a bunch of photos showing it and how the flap works in use. This might be helpful to anyone thinking about one. I love it! I wish I never had to take it off! Review: Luigi Leather Halfcase for Leica M8 / M9
