HotGrip for Leica M10, M11 & M EV1
The Owlkrown HotGrip is the first thumb rest that keeps your Leica handling solid while still allowing you to mount a manual flash or accessory. Unlike most thumb grips that block your hot shoe, this one doesn’t. It works seamlessly with center-pin manual flashes and is fully compatible with hot shoe-mounted optical viewfinders, giving you total freedom without compromise.
The HotGrip is compatible with center-pin manual flashes. It is not compatible with TTL, HSS, Visoflex, or multi-pin electronic accessories. Some models will fit in but only work in manual mode.
- Weight, Brass (Black Patina): 49 grams, with the hot shoe adapter fitted.
- Material: Brass (Black Patina)
- Patent pending design that gives you grip and flash in one.
Black patina shown in images is for reference only. Each piece is hand finished using an organic process, so the patina will vary from item to item.
Integrated Hot Shoe System
Attach the removable pass through hot shoe adapter to your manual flash, then slide it into the base of the grip. It locks into place with a click, no tools, no extra parts, just fast and secure mounting.
Sliding Lid Protection
The built in snap lid keeps the grip’s electrical contacts clean and protected when not in use. When removed, the lid stores securely on the front of the grip, so you never lose it.
Accessory Ready
Beyond flashes, you can also mount LED lights, microphones, or any cold shoe accessory that uses a standard male mount.
Ergonomic by Design
The grip is angled to match your thumb’s natural position and provides added support in both landscape and portrait shooting. Smooth beveled edges keep it comfortable, even for long sessions.
Built to Last
Durable solid brass construction. Designed and manufactured in Miami, Florida.

Flash + Grip, at Once

Anatomical Design
Follows your thumb’s curve for comfort and stability. Ideal for heavier lenses. Improves sharpness and compensates for Leica M bodies without IBIS—especially in low light.
Smart Lid Storage
A custom lid guards contact pins and docks magnetically on the thumbgrip when removed—always ready for your next setup.
Snug fit. ALWAYS
CNC-machined for a tight, rattle-free fit. The rubber skid pad and detent-ball passthrough ensure seamless attachment and rock-solid flash support.
