- Hello Epic People!
The Leica Q3 was a very expensive camera for me to buy and additionally, the accessories that go with it are also very expensive. So I ended up trying to find the best affordable third party (non Leica brand) accessories for my Leica Q3. Surprisingly, a lot of them are actually better than the Leica branded ones. After trying and returning multiple different accessories, here are the ones that I will be keeping.
Hope this video will help you guys who are looking for a cheaper alternative than the Leica branded accessories.

Any other affordable accessories I should try?
Yes, I agree with you about protecting the lens rather than scratching the Leica lens. I use lens filter from b + w and I didn’t see any difference in quality of pictures. It’s always on my camera.
B+W is awesome and protecting the lens is the most important. Bought the ND6 from B+W as well. Can't live without the IDS grip. Just got my Q3 wrapped to protect it from Alphagvrd in CA
Thanks for sharing! I am still not sure about Alphagvrd at the moment. One day I will try them if I want to hide all my battle scars on the camera hehe.
Best of luck with the new camera, I have my name down on waiting list but i could not wait so purchased Q2. I loooked at the same leather case but went for the grip instead.
Good choice! If I think about it... TBH I couldnt have gotten the Q2 and save some money and have very similar experience since I dont really use the flip up screen.
I very much enjoyed your considered decision making in what you purchased and what you now use. The Joe neck strap seems nice, but it looks like its got metal rivets and I wondered how long it would be before the camera gets scratched? I really much liked the baseplate, though I have opted for the Leica original because of wireless charging and therefore not wearing-out the camera's USB port or the battery retention mechanism. I've attached a Peak Design tripod plate to the bottom of the grip. This overhangs my wireless charging plate and it is indeed a shame that Leica didn't have an Arca-Swiss capability on their baseplate / grip.
I assume that the rope strap provides less surface area to your neck compared with a strap and therefore is uncomfortable in comparison?
As I chop and change between handheld, tripods and gimbals, the Peak Design stuff works well for me and their short hand strap is utterly excellent. The 'but' is that at the end of the straps themselves, the piece which the plastic clips connect to, has exposed metal on the back sides. i.e. a source of potential scratching, so I have covered these with glued cut-to-shape leather patches.
My two favourite accessories are the Leica Leather Wrap (yes it's ludicrously expensive), but it saves the camera from getting scratched when taking it out or putting back in to a zipped camera bag and the other is the Viltrox DC-550 Pro monitor, which when facing towards the camera's subject (me doing a talking-head), is simply brilliant for video work.
Thank you for sharing your setup. I do worry about the usb c port wearing out but so far I think I am ok. If the Leica original base had the arca swiss, it would have been a no-brainer. Does this mean you always detach the PD tripod plate every time you want to charge the camera?
I found out that the rope strap stretches, and when it does it gets thinner digging into my neck which causes discomfort.
Reading your setup you seem like you shoot a lot of videos with your Q3. How do you go about sound? Do you record separately since the Q3 doesn't have a mic jack?
@@MichaelYoungKim The PD plate is permanently attached to the Leica wireless charger handgrip so it overhangs the Native Union charging base, but the camera still charges correctly. For sound I currently use a Zoom F2 BT 32 bit float recorder and sync the sound in post, with the sound recorded by the camera and then usually, delete the camera's audio when I'm done. 😀
Thanks for this. If possible, could you please provide a link for your filter?
Thank you 🤗
Hey, you didn’t mention the soft release 😂
Dayum, you got everything
I wish :p
hey Mike, enjoyed yr vid. Do you know how we can replace the Leica red logo with a blacken one?
Sorry I do not know. I briefly saw it on some forum about leica giving away those black logos in the past, but I am not really sure.
Yeah lets put a bumper sticker on a ferrari...
"not everybody can afford all the Leica accessories"?? If one puts down around 6000,- for a Q3, then one should normally be able to add another 500,- for the hand grip, thumb rest and Cooph paracord strap. That makes the Q3 pretty complete with high quality accessories. Now, if one can't afford these, then I wonder why one would sweat blood and tears to spend 6000,- on a Q3, unless one is so desperate to walk around with a Leica because it's a Leica. This is the problem with the Q3 being paraded as a luxury lifestyle item by a bunch of influencers.
But hey, each to their own. Rant over.
My Leica Q3 just arrived, but now the hand grip and thumb rest are sold out ... go figure!
Fair point but the Leica accessories aren’t always better while being much more expensive.
Pretty sure you spent as much if not more with failed attempts trying to find “cheaper” alternatives 🤣😂
That’s why I try to return the ones i dont like.
