I need the swarm intelligence of the assembled Leica Q3 / Leica Q3 43 photographers here in the forum:

As a summer project, I have set up a page specifically for Leica Q3 / Leica Q3 43 accessories. At the moment it is still in beta stage:

  • There are still some pictures and links missing
  • The texts have not all been critically proofread yet (you will certainly find some stylistic blossoms)

Above all, however, the structure and product selection are not yet perfect - I would like to tap into your knowledge.

Structure

I currently have these categories - is there anything missing?

  • Cameras
  • Batteries
  • Chargers
  • Memory cards
  • Bags
  • Halfcases
  • Straps
  • Grips
  • Soft releases
  • Thumb grip
  • Lens caps
  • Lens hoods
  • Filters
  • Viewfinder accessories

Products

Do you have any accessory recommendations for the Leica Q3 that might be useful for others? Or manufacturers similar to Smallrig, Haoge or Oberwerth that I should take a closer look at?

Especially when it comes to “bags” and “straps”, I'm sure there are many tips from your side...

Further feedback

Do you have any other spontaneous suggestions on how to increase the usefulness of the site? Feel free to comment here!

Disclaimer

To avoid misunderstandings: This project is also about financing the forum. Some links are so-called affiliate links - if someone clicks on them and buys something, the forum receives a small commission, which finances the operation of the forum and our work. I ask for your understanding that I keep discussions in this direction out of this thread.

This project is very important to me because everyone benefits from it: The forum financially, the forum participants with good product recommendations.

I used an Artisan & Artist half case and strap for my Q2 and found them to be very nice. I also notice that you have not listed Arte di Mano for straps or cases. I think they are probably one of the best out there, but I am not sure if they are sold in a way that would work with an affiliate system.

Threads where the last comment is older than six months should be locked. Often zombie threads come alive which clutters up more recent and relevant discussions. TripAdvisor has something similar which keeps the site content fresh by locking older threads.

All of these are based on first hand experience and in use for several months with no issues. Nothing has caught fire or leaked. Only thing missing is the brand premium.

Thumb grip. I can't complain, esp at this price point: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2255801083372536.html

Soft release, well made at a price that can't be beaten: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003466332308.html

Battery. Been using for several months, no issues: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009287099687.html

Charger: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006149534748.html

Under Filters, maybe add a neutral density (ND) filter, such as the magnetic one from K&F Concept.

Under Batteries, maybe add the Kastar brand as a less expensive option. They also make a charger.

Under Memory Cards, the Sony Tough "M" series are also good and less expensive than the "G" series.

Cases: I’m using the Arte di Mano case – well made, fits great, super comfy to hold. 
Yeah, it’s expensive… but honestly feels worth it.
Magnetic flap gives easy access to battery + SD.
Sharing 3 pics! Rear pic shows indent to allow flip screen access.

For a bag, I use a Peak Design 3 liter bag, which is pleasantly compact for the camera.

When I want to carry extra items, I have the same bag in 6 liter size.
