1. EVF with eye-sensor mode? In eye-sensor mode the rear LCD will kicks in when your eyes leave the eye sensor. What do you want actually?
2. You must have silent mode enabled. Hold the Disp/Back button for a short while to cancel silent mode.

Don't think this is possible....

What was the price that ms offered you?
 

Just press "view mode" button a few times and select what you want:

1) LCD On (with Eye Sensor for auto-switch to EVF when eye is near sensor)
2) EVF only
3) LCD Only


Enjoy!

You can try Chiif but his opening hours are a bit difficult (very short opening hours on Sat, closed Sundays IIRC).
Else your usual TK, MSC, Cathay etc etc.

Soft shutter release - match technical, tom abrahamson, decamera consultant etc
leather case - gariz, kaza, zhou etc
straps - AA, gordy strap, andy strap etc

but for me everything is stock except for a soft shutter release.

Awesome! Thanks. Will go google them. :)))
 

I like Match Technical's soft release... They have unique design but the lacquer finishing peels off very easily.

I used mine for a month and my bug has paint peel all over. The lacquer finishing isn't durable...
 

Leather case not available yet for all the usual brands.

Only the original leather case is available. Tan Brown Colour with nice bottom opening to access battery and SD Card.

Finds the colour weird though, but since no other leather case are available, I bought one recently to tahan and to prevent small bumps and scratches.

This leather case is one of the best halfcase made by Fuji, and alot better than it's leather case for the X-Pro1.

Price is decent and similar to the usual Gariz price.

One of the most well made soft release is made by tom abrahamsson, especially the Chrome ones.

Used it for my M9P since a year ago and it is still shiny. You can get some of the selection at Chiif cameras.

This is the original website of the creator:
RapidWinder.com Home

There are different types to help making the snapping more stable.

I have ordered a few black and chrome one previously as spare, anyone wish to get I can sell cheap cheap!

Neh.... just joking! Too much trouble to meet for such a low price item.... You can get some of the designs at Chiif, but not many choices though.

Hi ZoomZ,

How much for a black one? And is it classic or mini?
 

I have BOTH as can't decide which one is better, so bought BOTH types, and BOTH Black and Chrome!

Price wise, you can check this website and browse around for other models:
ABRAHAMSSON RED MINI SOFT RELEASE

Chiif carries some. Check it out at his store as well.
