Re: GX7 aftermarket grips?

Trevor, you are right...

The grip of a camera very frequently does feel a bit better as time goes on. In my case, I have owned the GX7 for several months, so this was not a judgement "right out of the box"...even after these several months, the GX7 grip still feels lacking.

Why would someone want to change the grip? Well certainly with the heavier glass (the longer MFT zooms, the 2.8 lenses, and the bigger legacy glass), a bigger grip, IMHO, feels much better when that kind of weight is hanging off the front of the camera.

And even in as much as the shooter will adapt to some extent, it's also true that a human hand is a human hand, and certain grips WILL feel better, depending on the person.

Glad you are happy with the GX7 grip. More power to you.
