looking at the Aki-Asahi installation video, i think i will give a second thought on the leatherette skin.

 

[zapp!]

too much work needed to install custom skin...

Not just that, I have the feeling it might void the warranty.

I guess that's the banding issue that folks at dpreview talking about.

Any of you guys bought a hood for the 12-50mm? The shop asked me if I wanted a hood and I just bought it without hesitation (3rd party). Makes the lens look odd with the rectangular hood and no idea of its effectiveness.

Was trying live bulb with preview other day with remote shutter, it's really useful for long exposure shots to see actual exposure preview. No need calculate exposure especially when use ND filters.
