I have these for my R7's but like using a cable release much much better. Camera cable release and mirror cable release in one hand. Push the mirror cable followed by the shutter cable. Really easy, without having to reach around and push a button on the front of the camera. You are usually behind your camera. If you use MLU, you should be using a shutter cable release. So two releases in your hand are sure easy. I think Leica did us a favor by using a cable release socket for MLU. IMHO... and thousands of rolls with MLU.
