Anyone using gariz half case? Just bought mine and noticed my rx1 now leans forward and rests on lens when attached. .. anyone with same experience or is gariz spoilt?

The thick base of the gariz shifts the centre of gravity of the whole set up higher, resulting in a greater turning moment force n this causes the set to lean forward... Nothing is spoilt...

Thanks. Thought I bought a lemon.

This is right using the CG theory.
Unless you make the gariz bass heavy which the maker is trying to reduce the weights.

Aw most of the time we will be holding it on our hands or on strap other then resting on the table.

Just got myself a rx1. Think I going to enjoy it. Anyone know where I can get a suitable soft button as quite hard to press the shutter button on its own now. Going to bring it out while shopping with my family later (got free hands to help carry son).

Chiif carries some nice selections.

accordingly, the weight of the base would be very close to the total weight of the setup that will defeat the light weight objective... =)
 

Got the soft button from chiff. After one day of usage, this little cam is impressive so far. Hope to bring it out more often.

Just bought one from slrr for less than 20. No problem charging my batt. Think is good value. Puzzled why Sony make us pay a few k for the rx1 and don bother to give us a proper charger. Luckily there are always cheaper options available.
 

Thanks for the info bro, will go SLRR to get one. Ya Sony abit cheapskate in this aspect, the camera so ex liao, shld at least give us a charger mah..

Looks nice. Is it available already?

If its $300+ or even $250 it aint worth it... for a tiny grip..... the normal one is some 160-180 depending where you get it from. !

WANT A GRIP ? THIS is a grip !!
