[ Vanity ] Olympus EM-5 accessories thread

[Jelline]

Hello, what's a good (smallest possible, don't look "cheap" and yet not "eye catching" so as to avoid potential problem overseas) camera bag for the following:
1) OM-D with 12-50
2) OM-D kit flash
3) 1 extra battery
4) 9-18 lens
5) 75-300 lens

Many thanks.

I'm using lowepro urban photo sling 250

if not, is there a wired version?
appreciate any leads on brand/model name and where to get.

screen protector, not sure if there's 1 specially for om-d
but the 1 for pana LX3 covers most of the lcd screen.
the screen is bigger than a generic 3" screen protector.
i know cos i used a generic 3" SP before

hardly find it , my OMD is with phone protector (cut manually) 😊

 

[Sherronchua]

Mh... Maybe in a camera store? ;-) What exactly are you looking for (brands etc.)?

OMD is already so light which convenient us to bring along anytime , anywhere thats why im just placed it inside my bag with nylon clothes wraps it up. ( clothes idea from Oylumpus website )

 

[Sherronchua]

Anyone got any lobang for OMD extra battery? Having 2 OMD thats why looking for 2 batteries with better pricing. 😊

 

[Av8rjohno]

I was given a free screen protector, i-Gard brand. Anyone used it before to know if it's of good quality for my OMD?

Here is my DIY Wrist & Neck Camera Strap for my OMD

FYI, The HLD-6 grip is sold out island-wide in Hongkong. Went to at least 20 camera shops + Broadway/Fortress stores, all of them don't have it, and will require a pre-order of a few days at least.

 

[xherion]

Bro, artworkphoto at delphi still has some HLD-6 as of yesterday, not sure on the price though.

IF you are driving or work/stay near ubi, you can go direct to their shop/warehouse to look at their stuffs. i bought direct from them.
Google for "Bagman" in gmarket as i have less post to post link here.
Most likely this is their own online shop.
Model : DV06-A01S (Size S)
I would say this size suit me. Although i only have a 12-50mm len attached to my body, still have 2 empty slot for future 2 lens and other pockets for other stuffs.

Using A&A (various bags). Works well with the combo. Alternatively, the TTP Hubba quite good too.
