[ Compiled Info ] - Cool accessories for EP1/2, GF1 and other m4/3 cameras

[zoossh]

gf's PL1

official olympus "Ivory Lizard Embossed skin"

i dont really like it (but she does)..
bought JnK pink leather skin to replace this soon..

that is very beautiful, i thought. too bad mine is a GF1.
the only ugly part is the lens cap with that string - i quite like the hinge type lens cap from optechusa, but they have limited filter size and is also plastic. if made of metal, will be good.

yea that part most ugly too

but we compared it to having to:

1. remove cap, put in pocket, take photo
2. finish taking, take out cap from pocket and place back on lens (and sometimes you get a "hey its not there!", "oh.. its here")
3. rinse and repeat

so we rather live with the ugliness.. haha :sweat:

Wow. You guys sure spend a lot of money on accessories for your m43 camera..
I am just using it with the Oly shoulder strap. It is either on my neck or slinging it in front of me when I walk around.. I can't find any decent looking small bags which arent ridiculously expensive.

Does anyone know where can I get a Soft Button for E-PL1 locally besides the Oly Online Store?
It costs $16.90 + $10 shipping over there O:

i got mine during the PC/IT show last 1~2 months ago (olympus booth)
got the leather skin from there too

maybe u can wait abt 1 more month for SITEX (at expo?)

Is Gariz leather case good? I thought JnK leather is the best?

 

[TMC]

I prefer the way it allows the user to access the battery compartment w/o having to remove the case.

hi all...

I finally bought my e-p2 from a fellow user today!!
However, I was looking for a holster like case, something which I can bring the camera everywhere and ready to shoot.

But I read from above the Gariz half case has stop production? anything similar? I saw before a case for the panasonic gf1, where the user can just hang the camera from his belt or sort... O_O

i viewed them on http://www.shopatolympus.com.sg/

but would prefer to view the real stuff

by the way, what is the difference between the 3 types of hood?

Metal 37mm Lens Hood Silver

Classic Metal 37mm Lens Hood Silver

[danieltang]
