Hi all,

Does anyone use a Thumb Up (like MTS EP-1S or CSEP-1S) on the Leica MP?

The MP already has a thumbs up I think...

I always thought, that the " thumbs up " was made for digital cameras to imitate the feeling one had with a M6/MP when you use it^...

I've met one left-eyed shooter who uses a thumbs-up combined with a Rapidwinder (similar to the Leicavit).  He uses his left eye to frame and focus the image and his left hand to advance the film.  In his case, the thumbs-up gives him a better grip on his camera as he uses his right hand only to opperate the shutter dial- and button.

A Thumbs Up is for digital only.

haha, very good... it took me a while 

[honcho]

Only one left, now!

The same over here. I use it on the MP as well. GIves me more stability for shooting.

Great, do you mind post a picture with the TU mounted? Thanks

A short break to Berlin, from London. Enjoyed shooting off a couple of rolls.

 

Have decided to go strapless. Feels very nice. Photo credit to my talented wife and her X100.

 

Seasons greetings to all.

Vulcanite, a number 6 engraved on the top and a compulsion to spend even more money than you would on an MP.

 

 

And much less money than the equivalent in the a la carte version 

As well as owning a piece of Leica history, limited at that, with the first ever MP's that entered the marketplace on trial.

 

Not unlike those other crazy people here who still buy screwmonunt cameras that cost more than an M6

Rather more difference between a screwmount Leica and an M6 than an engraved  number 6 on an MP but, hey, if it's important to you.......

I've often wondered what the chrome stud on the M2 is for. It doesn't appear on any of the later M series.
