GH2 GH1 & GH2 "UN ST Grip" pistol grip

[gkanai]

I just picked up the pistol grip with shutter release for the GH1 and GH2. It was about 8000 JPY in Tokyo. As soon as I have some photos, I'll post them. Does anyone else have one?

The description from the manufacturer says that it's not good for the GH2 but I tested it before purchase and it works fine with the GH2.

By the way, I think 8000 yen is highway robbery. It should be about 2000 yen max.

Here it is for 6500 yen (with US tax): http://en.item.rakuten.com/prokizai/unx-5639-s/
Sadly, assuming a 1.45kg shipping weight, it would cost another 2800 yen to get it to the States, totaling about $114US.

Might as well pay $120US on eBay and get it from a Hong Kong seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...29034&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_1938wt_970:
