Grips for M bodies

[ferider]

I see where tastes for teh GMP grip run the full gamut from "love it" to "don't like it." I tried it, and found that it was not comfortable to hold. The upright piece was too flat to the camera, not affording enough depth to really wrap my fingers around securely. It was fatiguing to hold for any length of time. Nice looking, though! The Leica grip is much better. One of these days I will try out a Rapidgrip, which, having more depth than the others, should be ideal. Also, I am planning to make my own grip out of mahogany. That will be a fun project!

Very personal, I guess. I tried the Leica grip and it was simply too small for me. The handle is less deep than the GMP one. The GMP grip feels "hefty" and secure to me, maybe due to the angles. I'm 6'4".
