Even the large one does not add too much weight. I suppose it depends on how
much time you want to take on this decision. If there is a used one in your
area of either size then I would get it. If Leica stock is rare in your area
then the big one has been a constant companion of mine for years and that is
what I would order.
 If weight is very important to you then Manfrotto makes a dandy little
tripod with a fair ball head on it, probably around 30 Euro.
 Any of these will carry an M3 and 50.
