Looks great !

Well done.

Are you molding the grip yourself or outsourcing it ? Any chance of replicating the etched surface ?

If you're the first on the scene it just may become quite successful for you....I imagine that there are several custom made grips being designed and made as we speak. I doubt Olympus will hold the current $300 for too long and may even begin to offer a single piece option at some point as well.

That looks awesome. I would love to have one but not sure I can drop the cash after just buying the E-M5...

And if you want the original location on the full thread to see the extra pics ;) Fun with the Olympus OMD - Page 7 - The GetDPI Photography Forums

I was going to brush this off until I saw this retains the battery door functionality. That would be huge for me as it's a big reason I don't buy the OEM grip. Can you confirm this, jlm?
