    That green reporter look with the black grip looks great, would be really tempted to try this if i wasnt so utterly awful at doing these things 😂😂

    Great for those who are more interested in the camera as a fashion statement than for making photographs. Here's a novel idea for protecting the camera: keep it in a case or camera bag when not using and just take care of it.

      actually, I got the silver version and was looking for something to make it lees conspicuous, because silver one really is the "fashion statement", but since its so hard to get, there was not a choice to get a black version.

    I would like to see all the edges after handling the camera everyday for a couple weeks. If they pick up slightly and attract lint then its a no go for me.

    • @alphagvrd

      Valid. We’ve designed the skins specifically to reduce and eliminate lint buildup.

    Anyone had stickers on for more than 5 years? Does it make the camera sticky like the adhesive starts melting and sips through the side?

      That’s a great question. I’d like to know that as well.

    • @alphagvrd
      @alphagvrd  5 місяців тому +1

      We use 3M automotive grade adhesives, which should not leave residue and should last 3-5 years if properly maintained. We recently ripped off a skin that was on for 4 year, without issue.

      Had one on my A7C for 2 or 3 years and have it on my ZV-E1 for close to a year or when ever it came out and it just feels like the camera, you don’t notice anything sticky and doesn’t even peel after all this time. At least for me.

    Just curious and obviously the point of camera skins is to have "style" and a cool look.....but at the same time..why don't you guys offer a "clear skin"..I know I can't be the only one who would definitely love to keep the regular aesthetics of my camera while still being protected..lol even this VI for example..I want a clear skin to keep the silver look of the VI silver body..lol the only option you guys have is that Brushed Ti skin which is a nice darker looking silver..lol ..but please in the future can you consider making a "clear skin"..

    • @kevinpark7524

      Clear adhesives require a wet install and it’s quite cumbersome to adhere the film over tight angled areas.

    I will need to burn through multiple skins to get it just right. And until I get it right every little imperfection will make me physically react every time i see it. Not gonna lie though the X100V Report Edition looks SICK.

      To each their own, it adds another layer of protection while also giving it a unique look. Resale value tends to be better as well.
      Can also correlate to why people wrap their cars

      ​@@Gogogordy1u guys are idiots. Even cars and cellphones have different colors for the same model, this camera only has all black and the silver one. You do skins to personalize it just like buying a fancy phone case for your phone even when it's made of gorilla glass. But matter of fact the skin was beautifully done, it looks more attractive than the plain ones

    What's this crap? Buy a black finish body.
    I guess you are the kind of guy who buys a bra for the hood of your car, or a dog's vest and wool shoes for winter.
    Some people really have too much money in their credit cards. This is beyond photography as a passion. This is an addiction. Like Robin Williams said. consuming high end drugs is a message that you have too much money in your pockets.
    Personally, I've never seen such a mediocre product whose arrival was trumpeted with messianic tones.
    Yeah, I know the avalanche of negative answers that my comment will generate coming from the Fuji Church Inquisitors, but I'll take them with the same wisdom that I used when I was horrified seen the amount of flies slurping a fresh pile of excrement. One of them shouted:"If you haven't tried it, don't beat it!!"
