Hi,
I am using a kit by Delkin Designs which includes a sensor scope, which is a bit of a joke.
The wipe sticks are 1/2 the size of the sensor. I guess I will have to find sone full frame
sensor pads.

...My biggest disappointment with the M is the Multifunction Hand Grip.
I got the basic grip (#14496) when I got my M240 and am quite happy with it. At $855 USD
the #14495 multifunction grip is hideously overpriced and just not a needed accessory IMHO.
It's a shame about the dust issues you have had with your M240; I would hope/expect better from Leica for a new $7000 USD camera...
The GPS function would be handy for me because I travel a lot, and it would nice to get the location of each hamlet I travel through, but it doesn't work. It's not broken, it just doesn't work. Poor design choices in my view.
The X socket is nice, but only needed if you are using the EVF if you the old Visoflex I have an adapter for that.
The only cool thing is having TTL flash when you are using the EVF.. Like when you are using known (in Manuel mode) R lenses, but none of my R lenses are in the menu... Thus as you can see it's of little use.
The last feature is the ability to use mains, but my dealer has never seen the adapter...
Yes, the price is outrageous, but it's Leica, you expect that, but it's the worst product ever to come out from Leica... If I had any advanced warning before purchasing it, I wouldn't have...
