I love it. About this: <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/a/br/stack.jpg.html> I just don't get it - Leica M's have the best, softest, most predictable shutter release ever made, so I don't see the point of those "soft-release" gadgets. I use the feel of the dished-in shutter surround to know exactly where I can hold the button just on the edge of firing; then a micro-press sets it off. When I tried one of those attachments the shutter would go off unpredictably since there was no gauge of how far I was pressing, and I thus the camera might not have been as steady as it should have been. But as they say, YMMV.
