How to pimp your camera!

Canon Powershot S95 with handgrip
retrofitted by Richard Franiec (see link)

No, this is not an article about software modifications to your camera's operating system. Instead, (from imaging-resource.com) comes some advice and a link on how add a handgrip to a pocket camera! (Incidentally, this Canon model has a really nice HDR mode — there are sample pictures in the article.)

"I added a small grip to the Canon S95 using Super Sculpey modeling clay, which bakes into a hard, sandable, paintable solid. Because I don't get to keep the Canon S95, I attached the homemade grip with a 3M Command strip. I'm not necessarily endorsing that you make your own grip in this case, because whatever adhesive you use might not stick well enough, and you could drop your camera, but I made this one in lieu of buying a much nicer looking grip from Richard Franiec, just as a proof of concept. I made mine a little thicker than his to see if I could make the finger grip inside, for the balls of the fingers, which I did, but they don't really work the same on this scale."
