Love my Q and love the Leica leather half case in which it lives but is there anyway I can change the screw that secures the case to the camera to include a tripod thread? Getting fed up with removing the case each time I want to mount it on a tripod. Would welcome any advice.

You could buy a seperate RRS B9 or BPnS plate and place it over the half case.

It embodies both Arca Swiss as the “traditional” screw in system. May be you need a longer bolt (be careful!).

I once had the Leica half case, but sold it for the exact problem you’re dealing with. I had to take it off to use a tripod. I never found a solution, but admittedly I liked the Arte Di Mano case much more.

 

I carry an Arca Swiss plate with me I purchased on eBay. I screw it into the Arte Di Mano half case bottom when I want to use a tripod. It’s a DP-70 by Desmond. Cost around $10 which is a lot less expensive than RRS
