Leica Q3 Slim Skin Case now available

May 13, 2025

We've just released the Leica Q3 Slim Skin case! 🎉

Following the same ethos as our other Slim Skins, the Q3 version also boasts being one of the slimmest (if not THE slimmest) Leica case out there. It keeps the quick release and mounting bung, but also benefits from a lug tab for holding the case and keeping it firmly attached to the body.

The tab isn't strictly necessary, but possibly something we will roll out to the other gripped cases, to reduce the slight flex that can occur from the slimness of the case.

For those that don't want the Slim Skin to be always attached, the tab can be easily snipped off with a pair of sharp scissors or exacto-knife/scalpel, giving options depending on your preference.

Easy and efficient

I have purchased this 6-bit encoder kit for my 50 mm and 90 mm M-mount lenses. I can confirm that everything worked simply as expected. The whole process took me about 15-20 minutes while I have carefully followed the instructions and watched the videos. One of the strange things in Lightroom was that I couldn’t edit the meta data regarding the lens used. Now I am happy to be able to identify easily which lens was actually used.

It really works

I bought the six-bit-encoder to use on my 4 Zeiss lenses. It worked a treat. Very happy with my purchase.

Good stuff

The kit worked very well on my old lenses: Summicron 35, Summicron 50 and Summicron 90, even where screws are placed. Recommended

6-Bit Encoder Kit (for Leica M Mount Lenses)

This 6-Bit Encoder Kit is perfection

I recently purchased the 6-Bit Encoder Kit (for Leica M) and when putting it on my M Mount (non Leica branded) lenses it worked perfectly.
The instructions were clear and the corresponding lens codes supplied made it fast, simple and straightforward.
On my LTM lenses which need an LTM to M adapter I found one adapter maker did not give me the space on the metal to put the codes on.
That’s the fault of the adapter not the Encoder kit product and by switching to a better adapter all is good.
I haven’t used the white pen yet but the black pen supplied is great.
If anyone wants to change the coding a simple wipe with isopropyl (or similar) on the lens Mount allows you to quickly reset it.
Highly recommended and the product was delivered quickly.
Buy once buy right.

Excellent product which fits perfectly and unobtrusively and provides very good value protection for my M10P. Highly recommended.

Leica M10 · Slim Skin Case

Bases covered

Simple piecevof sticky-backed transparent film but it does the job, protecting against scratches. It isn't perfect, a tad thicker would be better but one can always applt two or even three pieces for added protection.

6-Bit Encoder Kit (for Leica M Mount Lenses)

Great unobtrusive case with grip.

Purchased because i wanted to try a grip on my m246. It really feels quite sturdy and texture is nice. Note to use it along with a strap as it isnt fixed in place but does sit nice and snug. Easy to remove to get to battery and sd card.
