The Handgrip M is especially helpful when using the high-speed lenses
of the digital Leica M system. It's easier on the photographer's hands
and makes it easier to hold the camera still even during long
reportage sessions. The Handgrip M is available in black and steel-grey
paint to match the digital Leica models. The Handgrip is attached to
the digital M models instead of the normal base plate and ensures
ergonomic photography with high-speed lenses such as the
APO-Summicron-M f/2/90 mm ASPH.
