Like to see that Brad for sureTerry,
I have the case but not the GF1 yet! Yes, there's a fair amount of padding at the bottom, but that doesn't bother me. I think it will make the camera a little easier to hold. They recessed the snaps at the bottom for the attachment of the optional cover flap, so the camera sits upright even though there are snaps on the bottom. The case is well built - not Luigi built - but nice nonetheless. I'll bring it to Oregon.

I've never used a screen protector before either---I did know that one could replace the cover on Canon's LCDs with a replacement from their parts store--and cheaply. I actually never had to replace one however. But--with the GF1 I haven't been able to find a replacement cover in their parts store--and don't know how the LCD holds up to repeated in and out of a pouch, bag, etc. I do plan to use one, but it was suggested to me that the Giottos glass cover (seems similar to the one you mentioned) added depth on the back and that they 'could' break with dire results. Consequently, I ordered one from here at Cindy's suggestionI hate to start a thread about this. Has anyone put a GGS lcd protector on their EP-1 or GF-1 screen yet? And if so, how easy to get it right the first time? Or does the GF-1 really need LCD protection? I had a G9 that scratched easily, but my Fuji f31 was more forgiving.
Thanx!
Hi Terry.... Here's a few pics of t he GF1 CaseBrad,
I'm very confused about this half case. If you follow the link and look at the picture of the back (actually even on the front), there must be a lot of padding at the bottom of the case as there is very little room for a case to go on the camera and not cover part of the LCD. Do you have a GF1. Grab your camera and compare to the pictures.
Welcome to the Forum Ryan!! :clap: :thumbs:Hey Don,
I'm thinking of getting that Lumix case (if I can find one anywhere. They're hard to track down outside of Japan). I'm assuming there's no chance of closing the cover with a view finder on the gf1? I'm using a 40mm viewfinder on my GF1 and enjoying it immensely. I could live with having to take it off to close the case, but if the case is flexible enough it might close with it on, no?
BTW: first post here. Great forum.
