[ Compiled Info ] - Cool accessories for EP1/2, GF1 and other m4/3 cameras
- Thread starter rwhite
- Start date
just too excited to share this with you all.. i just bought a leather camera skin from ebay for my beloved PEN E-P2 for $40 USD..
can't wait for it to arrive and decorate the camera.. :angel:
will upload the real look of my camera after i put on the skin... :lovegrin:
Thats a JnK skin, lol
btw i dropped by OSC today, and I saw some Gariz cases and accessories on display. I think they will launch a website for PEN accessories soon. There was a poster with a website... sadly i forgot the URL
There's a small note dated 10 June at http://www.olympusimage.com.sg/ which says "Our online accessories store will be in full operations by July 2010, watch this space for more information!"
So I guess anytime soon ......

JnK's skin is real leather ...
*Jnk
I've had my "leatherette" (more like rubberized) Aki-Asahi skins replaced twice already, easily worn out at least in my non-sweaty grip.
This Jnk leather seems like it will last for years, as leather should be. The skins help in gripping, for those who don't use cases. Someone used it to cover his E-P2 paint peels.
But if the Olympus skin is real leather, then it certainly is cheaper.

edit: oh and what soft shutter release are you using? i'm looking for one that doesn't have ugly looking designs on it. plain black or chrome would be great

true true. i was staring at the website again and it looks like the oly website one is some sort of lizard skin look. i decided to convince myself that i hate lizard skin, just to feel better. hahahaha
hmm any idea if they sell the original hotshoe cover? the 2nd hand set i bought didnt have it

helps eliminate haze, but more importantly, it protects your lens from scratches

good point... I think I will get that too, any idea how much is the ultra violet filter?
you can buy any cover that fits a standard hotshoe
you can get some at ebay for less than 20sgd i think. local shops not sure of the pricing... but they do have

I assume third party is okay right as long its 40.5 right?
yup, that's for 14-42mm lens.
for 17mm, you need the 37mm size
I bought the Fujiyama brand from ebay

Olympus online shop now offers the Gariz Soft Buttons, both concave and my favorite convex shape, with or without hot shoe cover (not useful for those with VF-2). Cool functional stuff IMHO, although I don't know if the price is cheaper compared to the other Singapore online shops who also sells them.
