Thumbs Up 1 and Thumbs Up 3
For an introduction to our Thumbs Up grips and suggestions as to which model will suit you, see Thumbs Up - help.
Thumbs Up 1 and Thumbs Up 3 are our base models without cold shoes, and are available in two different lengths, as shown in the photographs below. They are CNC machined from solid brass billet, and a silicon rubber insert provides a cushion between the camera body and your Thumbs Up.
Thumbs Up 1 and Thumbs Up 3 will fit the following Leica M models: M9, M8-2, M8, M8U, M6, M4, M3 and M2.
Thumbs Up has been positively reviewed in Viewfinder (the journal of the Leica Historical Society of America) and Leica Fotografie International. Phil Askey of dpreview.com in his Leica M9 Hands-on Preview was also very impressed with Thumbs Up. The Luminous Landscape's Michael Reichmann describes Thumbs Up as "a purchase you won't regret for a second" in An M9 in Paris – A Field Review, and as "an invaluable and essential tool" on SteveHuff Photo. Our customers have also been enthusiastic (see our feedback page and RichCutler.co.uk).
