I saw that one, it would annoy the living day lights out of me

Just goes to show we’re not all the same:

Surprised you found one. They’ve not been available for over a year now. In fact I don’t think LensMate have an online presence any more.

Yeah, I've set up the rear control dial 'button' to act as AF-ON for BBF and so I'd have to move the lensmate one out of the way every time I wanted to focus. The smallrig one still gives access to the rear buttons and control dial

I didn't look into whether I could find one as I saw the design and dismissed it

I never got on with Fujis historically, but I'm becomming a convert

We tried to tell you years ago, but you were then obsessed with having your D750 repaired under recall/warranty every week, and that micro 4/3 postage stamp size sensors met your IQ requirements for motorsport

I think the worms threw you off the scent..............................

Have your credit card ready I'd strongly recommend the smallrig thumb grip, makes a huge difference

I’ve got a Smallrig grip on my XT-4, if I end up buying an X100 I’ll probably look into something like that. I know it adds some bulk, but it will still fit nicely in my camera sling, and it’ll be worth it for the comfort.

In my defence the way Lightroom handled Fuji files was pretty awful. Aperture was better but not great.

I still got some great shots with the m4/3

Not the hand grip, the thumb grip. I tried the Small Rig, Hoage, and JJC hand grip and didn’t like any of them.

This is the thumb grip, doesn’t add any bulk.
