Both that body and grip are brand new! By "out of kilter" I mean that the grip is loose after it is tightened because the angle is off, leaving some space between the base plate of the camera and the bottom of the grip. The grip is OK. It fits my other M6 perfectly. It seems that the screw hole where you attach the grip is off-angle. Mary Gary Tardoff wrote: >I had problems with my M6 grip after a lot of tripod use.
