Default Re: Grip or Luigi Case?

Here is a low budget solution that works. I cut a small postage sized piece of skate board grip tape and applied it to the back of the camera where my right thumb rests. It made a huge difference in providing a secure grip.

Just an alternative for your consideration.

Daumen hoch Grip or Luigi Case with Thumbs Up?

I've used the Luigi case exclusively for two years. I love it and it looks just as it should.
The hassle of taking the case off frequently to download the SD card or change batteries
is real but to me an acceptable trade off. Luigi makes a classic.

My opinion is a bit slanted toward the Thumbs Up CS since I designed it and also manufacture it. But Luigi did a fine job of customizing his case to fit my Thumbs Up CS.

Now Luigi Crescenzi reports to me that ALL of his classy M8 cases are redesigned to now fit Thumbs Up and Thumbs Up CS. Of course I am delighted with that development !

My Luigi half case has the small grip built in, but with Thumbs Up his case provides a very substantial grip on the camera.

Thumbs Up will also provide more that sufficient grip to easily lift your M8 either horizontally or vertically with one hand with or without the Luigi case.
