congrats! is it difficult to put on the skin? i ordered a JNK leather skin.. item shipped but still have to wait like more than a week to arrive :sweatsm:
pimped my PEN with leather case bought in Tokyo's yodobashi in shinjuku - 5,430 yen :lovegrin:
Is this a Hakuba case? Thinking of getting this for my E-P1.
Learned this some time back when changing foams of some old film cameras:
It's important to have a bit of water around, as it delays adhesion and allows one to move and perfectly align the skins/stickers. Wet the adhesive part lightly until you don't feel it sticky. Olympus online store has the instructions ...

yup.. from hakuba.. sharp eye eh!
can u provide the link for online store? wet the adhesive part meaning spray some water on the sticky surface? :sweat:

too bad the skin dont have for EPL1.
They probably will have it later, if it is OEM from Aki-Asahi, who already has E-PL1 skin but only in black. Both instructions show the same water holder ... and same fingernails
(trying to be Sherlock Holmes here after watching a lot of Jeremy Brett as Holmes, the best)Anyway, ordered the Olympus E-PL1 case yesterday and some spare soft buttons, delivery is this evening, fast. Will perform surgery on the case to put the tripod hole so I can attach my hand/wrist stap which needs the tripod screw hole (and tripod if needed). The case will make the E-PL1 slightly bigger, but I welcome the slight size increase for better grip, at least with my hands.
Extension tripod screw can be bought from Chiif Camera for such a DIY project.
p.s. no need for surgery after all, already has tripod hole screw ...

Guess I'm used to applying of skin (screen protector, full body shields etc.) so I'm quite used to it le, so quite easy for me but I wouldn't say it's perfect. I got mine In 10days? How I wish they had the back skin too,only covers in front though
Sorry, i just checked ebay, i think they only have JnK leather skin, check this link

aside from aesthetics, it sort of raises the shutter button, making it easier to access
