Some LUGnuts claim that you can squeeze and extra hand-held stop or two out of the shutter speed with a "Softie" attached. (pun intended.) I haven't really tested that and I don't think that they will offer your photos any more "impact," but I AM certain that it is the best $10 that you can possibly spend on your Leica. I use Tom's Softies on my minolta SRT102s as well as my M5...sadly they aren't compatible with my new Bessa R, (too close to the Shutter Speed dial and a slightly different thread I think) but the Bessa's release is pretty easy to reach anyhow.
