This 0.5" red Leica Soft Release Button for M-System Cameras screws into the shutter release button's threads, and provides a larger surface area as well as a unique design. It has a painted brass finish and features the Leica logo. Additionally, a threaded rear backing attachment is included so the soft release can also be used as a lapel pin or clothing accessory.

I haven’t received yet in the mail over couple weeks but luckily I have the silver Leica button and so far looks super cool and awesome. Stays snug on the release shutter button and feels good when pressed.
Lol -- I have five Leica bodies -- three film and two M digitals. I had seen and read about these little soft release buttons. As far as function? Ummmm: Not a whole lot of big diff there, although the Leica-Acolytes claim there is. It arrived and I tried it on an M3 and an M9. 1. I like it!! It really does give you some sort of mystery power over the shutter release that makes it seem more quiet. Probably just a placebo effect! 2. Man, does it LOOK GOOD! Soooooo Good! Is it a bit pricey? Yeah -- bit it is worth the tariff!! lol
