ruby.monkey got a reaction from Curiojo in X100F: Q-menu button annoyance
Add a thumbs-up or similar. The problem goes right away.

Sounds dull. Lay 'em out on a shooting range instead.

I needed a low-profile lens hood for my X100T (so that it'd fit in a Black Rapid SnapR 35 without getting stuck):

27-49mm step-up adapter stacked with a 49mm filter rim, reverse-mounted on the lens thread. Looks crap, works just fine; and I finally found a use for a UV filter.

I turned an old Leica neck strap (14312) into a couple of quick-release wrist straps:

The main benefit is having a strap which can be mounted or removed in seconds, and which doesn't leave anything attached to the camera when removed. Oddly enough, the only cameras I don't use these on are my Leicas (the strap lugs are brass and aren't guaranteed to support the weight on just one lug).
