Hi all, I just wondered what people's thoughts were on camera skins etc. having just bought a new camera and wanting to protect it from scratches and scuffs etc.

Cheers
 
I have used the 3M type skins on my Cannon bodies for a while now, usually a plain black so its not noticeable once applied.They normally come pre cut to fit all the shapes of the camera body and fit perfect. When I have come to sell a body they peel off leaving no residue and you have a camera in Mint condition to sell, gaining you a litt more return for that next upgrade. The other positive is once on you cannot tell so they dont interfere with operating the camera or ergonomics like a silicon case would.

In short, you get you money back down the line :)
 
When I did a Fujifilm walk last year one of the guys had a skin on one of his cameras, and it looked pretty cool. I've looked at them myself in the past, just never pulled the trigger. I had one on my phone once, and as Rob says above you can't tell once they're on.

I think the Aliexpress ones are a lot cheaper if you wanted to try one without breaking the bank.
