I do plan to black out the white lettering, though.

Holding off on the hood. Screw hood won't do. Holding out for an affordable bayonet hood. The CZ 24mm hood might actually work, but could look ridiculous on that camera. I'll try it for grins.

I wasn't really around when the RX1 accessories were being discussed previously, but I am dumbfounded that the little thumb grip with no electrical connectors is $250. I'd be hard pressed to pay more than $30 for something like that given that I have a metal lens hood for the RX1 coming and it was $7. I'll wait for the knock off thumb rest. $250 - WTH?

Even though I have a screw on lens hood coming, I do plan to try the 18-55 kit lens hood on the RX1 just in case. I like wrist straps as well, but I like string ones that have a locking mechanism on to tighten the strap like this one that I use on my NEX-5N , but it's no longer available. Hmmm.

EDIT: I think I might get this OP/TECH neoprene wrist strap .
