Jeff No I didn’t, I was adding to what DenverSteve said, not accusing him of anything. Once again, obvious to most people but not everyone it seems.

Actually, it is an intelligent question as the M11 is the first M to no longer have the bottom plate and also offer direct access to battery and card. An important consideration in tripods / heads is whether one can access the M11's battery and card without having to dismount the camera from the tripod / head.

LikameLeica Posted April 12 Share #45 Posted April 12 Peak Design Carbon Fiber without a question. Lightweight but also Sturdy Excellent compact design and great looking as well. Packs down to the diameter of a water bottle. Mounting bracket works well with Leica M handgrip/L bracket. Secure but yet very easy mounting and releasing of camera Unique but extremely easy adjustments for height, level, angle, etc. Works well with other Peak Design bags/accessories for carrying it Compatible with the peak design anchors and straps for another optional carry method Includes mounting bracket for mobile devise Expensive but hands down the best tripod I have used and perfect for the M. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksrhee Posted April 13 Share #53 Posted April 13 I have the Gitzo Mountaineer, System 3 Series, and Peak Design. They are all excellent. My System 3 is built like a tank but is the heaviest. I used to carry the Mountaineer everywhere, but when I got the Peak Design, it became my everyday carrier, given its compact size and weight. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The handgrip is arca Swiss compatible. Is anyone using this combination? I have used it with no problems-PD tripod is fiber and very light. I use other setups too, but mainly with my SL system. As an aside about the M11 hand grip the rubber flap covering the battery compartment is terrific. If the grip is not wanted I am sure a machine shop nearby could cut it off so that the flap and A-S mount is still useful.🙃 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitzo in different sizes with Arca-Swiss heads do the job for me, but then I have absolutely zero interest in a 911. Why? The 911 can get to your location faster than most.😁 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally, I prefer my own reviews (to myself) rather than some influencer who is trying to get more clicks so that Youtube can pass on to him 10 cents more or whatever. What a world we live in today where no one has their own opinion, just the opinions of others.🫠 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEyesHaveIt Posted April 16 Share #59 Posted April 16 For a minimal travel kit, I like the Really Right Stuff Mini Pocket Pod. Flexible and sturdy. For ball head, I’ve been using the Leica one, which is nice but heavy. I am looking for a lighter weight, smaller head now. Even one of those cheap micro heads will do. A heavy ball head is unnecessary given the minimal weight of the M with a small M lenses attached. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudgerer Posted April 16 Share #60 Posted April 16 A good carbon-fibre mono-pod is I find the best fit for M work........ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
