Olympus - CBG-10
Olympus
The third Olympus accessory option is a Premium Leather Strap (CSS-S117L PR) to go with the above, with a retail price of £89.99.
If you're looking for an accessory that is more specialist still, then how about the PT-EP08 underwater housing for the OM-D E-M5, or twinning said camera with an M.Zuiko 75mm f/1.8 prime lens for best results?
That aside, there are also bag options for the newer mirror-less OM-D E-M1, which has likewise garnered great reviews and holds a greater pro-end appeal. First up is a soft case in the CS-42, and a lens system camera bag in the CBG-10. If that's not enough further enticements to purchase come in the shape of the quilted case (model number CS-43), and washable neck strap CSS-P118, along with its own underwater housing allowing photography at depths of up to 45 metres in the PT-EP11 housing. Alternatively you might wish to get a grip by plumping for the detachable vertical grip, model number HLD-7, or the MMF-3 lens mount adapter that will allow the use of existing Four Thirds lenses, which has a retail price circa £179.
