Leica M9 UNofficial accessories:
- SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card (30MB/s) – the booklet says that you can use a 32 GB, but the M9 is very picky what kind of card you will use. I can guarantee you that this 16GB SanDisk card is working perfectly and I never had any issues with it.
- “M-Mate2″ baseplate for M9 (and M8) allows quick access to the SD card and battery. On the same site you can find high quality leather cases and other Leica M9 accessories (Luigi is very well known in the Leica community, if you are not sure about something, drop him a line)
- Thumbs Up CSEP-1 for Leica: allows a better camera grip (in the US can be purchased here). More Leica accessories are available on the same website (eyecups, different releases).
- Double Lens Mount Cap f/ Leica-M Lenses: it allows you to stack two Leica M lenses together (to fit in a small bag).
- Soft release button for Leica M9 (various colors available – just pick a black one).
