The Thumbs Up is a "thumb rest" accessory that allows you to hold your Leica M Series with improved weight distribution, stability and safety.
You will not believe the comfort that a Thumbs-Up provides.
Your compositions will be more consistent, your photographs more stitched, and the reassuring grip of your Leica will reassure you.
Thumbs Up users say they can take handheld photographs at a slower shutter speed of 1 to 2 stops.
Originally designed for the Leica M8 with a very slippery grip, the Thumbs Up is so effective that many Leica M users in general also use it.
Thumbs Up are machined in copper blocks with high precision CNC machines.
The Thumbs Up is fixed on the hot-shoe flash of the box with a firm push.
If you've never used this claw, the fit seems tight but rest assured it's how it's designed.
CS models have an additional attachment mechanism (with a supplied key) to prevent accessories such as an external viewfinder from moving the Thumbs Up.
Thumbs Up are available with or without accessory shoe holder.
The clawless model: Thumbs Up EP-1S is ideal for owners of Leica M who do not often use flash or external viewfinders.
Not only is this model cheaper but it has a finer and more discreet design.
The model with accessory shoe CS (Cold Shoe in English) as the CSEP-1 S has a claw for attaching external viewers or other accessories on the Thumbs Up.
None of the Thumbs Up models have synchronized flash-shoe therefore the Thumbs Up must be removed to use a flash.
The letters EP are the abbreviation of Ergonomic Profile which have been designated for improved and optimal comfort.Vous aurez du mal à croire le confort qu’un Thumbs-Up procure.
Vos compositions seront plus cohérentes, vos photographies plus piquées, et la prise en main sécurisante de votre Leica vous tranquillisera.
Les utilisateurs de Thumbs Up disent pouvoir prendre des photographies à main levée à une vitesse d’obturation plus lente de 1 à 2 diaphragmes.
Dessiné à l’origine pour le Leica M8 doté d’une prise en main très glissante, le Thumbs Up est tellement efficace, que beaucoup d’utilisateurs de Leica M en général l’utilisent aussi.
Les Thumbs Up sont usinés dans des blocs de cuivre avec des machines à commande numérique de haute précision.
Le Thumbs Up se fixe sur la griffe-porte flash du boitier avec une poussée ferme.
Si vous n’avez jamais utilisé cette griffe, l’ajustement semble serré mais rassurez-vous c’est comme cela qu’il est conçu.
Les modèle CS ont un mécanisme de fixation additionnel (avec une clé livrée) pour éviter que les accessoires comme un viseur externe ne fasse bouger le Thumbs Up.
Les Thumbs Up sont disponibles avec ou sans griffe de fixation porte-accessoires.
Le modèle sans griffe: Thumbs Up EP-1S est idéal pour les possesseurs de Leica M qui n’utilisent pas souvent de flash ou de viseurs externes.
Non seulement ce modèle est moins cher mais il a un design plus fin et discret.
Le modèle avec griffe porte-accessoire CS (Cold Shoe en anglais) comme le CSEP-1 S possède une griffe permettant la fixation de viseurs externes ou autres accessoires sur le Thumbs Up.
Aucun des modèles de Thumbs Up ne possèdent de griffe port-flash synchronisée (Hot Shoe en anglais) c’est pourquoi le Thumbs Up doit être enlevé pour utiliser un flash.
Les lettres EP sont l’abréviation de Ergonomic Profile (Profil Ergonomique) qui ont étés désignés pour un confort amélioré et optimal.
