[Leica] OT: Thumbs up

[kcarney1 at cox.net (Ken Carney)]

I have the Fuji X-E1 and now three lenses, so far, so good.  I have the
thumb grip and I am a lefty - no prob except for a little nose grease on the
display.  Isn't flash a computer instead of a camera thing?  All I know is
that some sites take forever to load.  Just asking.

I think my Leica grip makes the M8 perfectly handholdable. Without it, I
found it awkward and slippery. With the Fuji X-Pro 1 there is a similar
problem: it is not easy to handle it with one hand, and to make it worse
there are all those little buttons to press by accident. 

This week I took delivery of the Thumbs-Up for the Fuji, bought directly
from Tim Isaac. It is awesome! It has made my Fuji just as easy to handle
with one hand as my M8. 

Caveats:

- if you are a lefty, I guess it will not work for you
- if you use flash, it will not work for you either since the thingie
occupies the flash slot. But I consider flash the work of the devil so it is
no problem for me.

Highly recommended.

Cheers,
Nathan
