Leica Rumors Forum

By LR admin | Published: April 20, 2009

Leica Rumors Forum is now online. You asked for it (72% said yes on the poll) – now you better use it 😉

I started few sample discussion topics, but feel free to add your own. Let me know what you think (I know about the black background – soon you will be able to change the black background to white).

FYI the Nikon Rumors Forum currently has 585 users, let’s see if we can beat that…

New Leica D-Lux 4 custom grip coming soon

By LR admin | Published: April 20, 2009

This is the first hand info I got from http://kleptography.com/rf/:

Grip is individually 3D CNC machined from solid aircraft grade aluminum alloy then glass bead blasted, black anodized and nickel sealed – makes one handed shooting a breeze.
It does not obscure battery/card door.
Grip is attached with transparent VHB (Very High Bond) 3M tape. Bonding power is exceptional but it can be carefully removed without damaging finish of the cam if needed.
Projected retail price is $29.95 + $3.00 S&H ($4.50 outside US), availability by end of April.

Here are some pictures (click for high-res):

I am not sure what is the connection between the Audi R8 on the background and the White Leica M8, but they both look great (click on image for high-res).
