Olympus HLD-8 Power Battery Grip for E-M5 Mark II (accessory)

Customer Review

Although I also "naked" in size very appreciate the E-M5 Mk II, I bought this handle to in certain situations just have a more secure grip, or to create comfortable portrait images without cramp. My expectations regarding grip / function were fully met but there are two points that made me at the price now but disturbing:
a) pins, which are providing the contact with the body very delicate and can be protected with the supplied cap. But: These caps, each specifically to the handle or on or the battery grip and are not interchangeable. In addition, to secure the cap hakelig and from cheap plastic. This could have been different and significantly solve elegant.
b) The contacts on the camera and on the intermediate handle are covered by a small rubber flap to protect against contamination. In the two handles has also so far thought along that one holds a recess into which these rubber strap can be stowed as soon as you use one or both handles, BUT: The recess is not working so well that the rubber flap there so firmly sitting inside as the body, with the result that like to fall out this rubber plate when disassembling the handles. Even that would Olympus can solve better.
If I'm honest, me such things very angry - especially when a solution is banal and not associated with any / any significant additional costs. In a high-priced product can be the expected, I think.
All in all, a highly recommended product.
