Leica Soft Release Button for M-System Reviews

Red Accent for Black Leicas

By Alan

There are many soft-touch buttons that are less expensive, but only one that says Leica. For all-black cameras like my M11-P, it not only makes the shutter button more friendly and easy to find, but adds a touch of class. I tried wearing it as a button on my hat for fun, and soon lost the backing. The aluminum backing piece doesn't hold it very securely, but on the camera, it not only looks great, and does not work loose, but makes using the camera even easier.

Classy Shutter Button

Love this shutter button. Hopefully it will stay on and not fall off as it is too expensive to lose! Tried the cheap ones and they always fall off. This one is, however, not painted on the screw threads, so maybe it will stay put. It is very functional and adds to the charm of the camera.

No. This will not fit on a Q2. It is designed to screw into the the shutter release button of the Leica M series cameras. The Q/Q2 has a different design shutter release button that does not allow it.

Does this have a locking system so it does's come unscrew?
Asked by: Jerry
No, it doesn't have a locking mechanism. It simply screws down on the shutter release button and you would notice easily if it started to come unscrewed a bit in which time you would snug it back down.

Does this fit Leica M3?

Does this fit Leica M3?
Asked by: Am
I have never seen a Leica M3, but if the shutter release button on the M3 has a threaded hole in its center for a standard shutter release cable, then it will accept this soft-release button.
