What is it?
A slim, super-light and flexible shell for the Leica M240 (and M262). It helps reduce the added bulk of normal cases of this slightly thicker digital M while providing excellent protection and grip.
Ideal for the M240 photographer:
The M240 is a robust camera; this case protects its finish and improves the grip without adding unnecessary weight or size.
Key Features
- Smart "Pop-Off" Access: (Standard Version) Just pop the bottom mount loose and remove it in seconds.
- Sits Perfectly Flat: (Standard Version) Removes the wobble found with some screw-in cases.
Choose Your Style
- Grip Version: Enhances the handling of the M240's heavier body.
- No-Grip Version: Keeps the camera as compact as possible.
Mounting Options
-
Standard (Quick-Release) Mount:
Perfect for street and travel photography where speed matters. Our custom quick-release "bung" insert allows you to attach and detach the case in seconds. The camera sits perfectly flat on surfaces, and you have instant access to the battery and SD card when you need it. Best for photographers who prioritize convenience, speed and minimalism. -
Tripod Edition (Screw-In) Mount:
For maximum security and versatility. This version uses a traditional tripod screw attachment, making it compatible with many tripod plates, Peak Design capture system, and other mounting systems. Two screw sizes included:- 8mm screw: For direct mounting to the case. Clean, minimal, and secure.
- 10mm screw: For "sandwich mounting" with Peak Design plates or tripod mounts between the case and camera. Adds 2mm of clearance for thicker mounting plates.
Material
Made from a special high-quality, rubber-like matte material.
Please Note
-
Safety: For maximum safety, always use a tether (neck or wrist strap). Do not rely solely on the case to secure your camera.
- Safety: When using the 'tripod' version always make sure there is enough thread to securely mount the camera body, do not use if less than 4mm thread enters the camera tripod mount. Tighten fully and check regulary to ensure attachment remains firm.

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.
Exactly what I expected and needed
I wish I knew about it sooner, after using my camera for 10 years the leatherette is bubbling and even peeling. This case would have prevented that. It fits very well and at least for now stays on without issues. Let's see how it holds up after being taken off and put back on multiple times.
My only issue is with what it is - it's a 3d printed piece of flexible plastic and it has that 3d printed feel. I was hoping for more of a rubber-like feel. As it is, I feel it's a bit too pricey.
