The Leica M can also be connected directly to a computer via this handgrip's integrated USB socket, allowing full remote control of the camera with the Leica Image Shuttle software package and the transfer of image files directly to the computer via a USB cable.

Last but by no means least, the multifunctional handgrip M also helps aid to the safe and steady handling of the camera, particularly when shooting with heavier R-Lenses.
