it is available in red too.

anyway, the site cites "Panasonic PS-SFX01 Soft Black Leather Camera Case for DMC-FX01, FX9 and FX8 Lumix" so i guess maybe we can try fx 8 and fx 9 cases.

heya bro. err compacts cannot add telecoverter all that. only the FZ series is capable of doing that. the only thing that compacts can add on is probably an external flash... :) the only compacts that can add tcon all that are canon's compacts (A series all that).

this is also y i recommand most to go for fz series rather than lz/tz/fx if they are serious in photography :devil:
 

my fx 01's lcd screen is dead.

was still prefectly working yesterday but when i turned it on it became like that. though the camera's function are still working fine, but i can't do a single thing because there's no view finder, and i can't do the settings.

its not even 2 weeks old and i'm going to the bird park tomorrow!! what luck. :(

any idea how long it'd take?

any hard bump or knock?
most lcd wun crack by itself unless under extreme pressure or climate
 

the lcd's cracked?

i just put it in my bag's side pocket as usual whenever i took it out.

don't fret. i think there are others too who experienced the problem, even overseas users...

yup looks like a crack to me... the lcd inside not the plastic on the outside :sweat:
 

sent it to the service center.

they say lcd's not under the warranty and might be chargeable. :(
 

went to SLS yesterday in search of the pouch for the camera. had asked several shops but they do not sell the leather type of pouch for the fx series.

so in the end, i went to Sony and found a pouch for my camera. the width is a bit longer than the camera's width but it still fits the camera well.

i like the cushion inside, which is rather thick. hopefully it'd protect the LCD from crackings again. :sweat:

as can seen from the photo, there is space for a pen/little finger at the side, otherwise, the camera will fit in perfectly.

the pouch is made of genuine leather and costs $29.
 

i got myself a crumpler thirsty al as a carrying case. fits well n looks good!

reverie62, u collected ur FX01 from the service center already?
btw how's the charges for the replacement of LCD cost?
 

yup. collected it on friday afternoon. they decided to waive the charges this time!

told me to get a better case and be more careful the next time.
