Worthwhile for body/lenses without image stabilization
Update 8/31 - 2 stars - after using the O ring provided to ‘enhance the security’ of the button to the body, the button popped off after I clicked the shutter and fell into a swampy abyss. I had just checked that the soft metal shutter release was securely attached. Beware—It’s not as secure as you think. I am beyond bummed. They should really sell these in a ten pack at a reduced price for a larger pack since these will pop off at some point.###Got these for my xt20. My prime lens essentially lives on the body and the lens doesn’t have IS. I noticed some of my photos were blurry, from movement and or breathing, which is annoying because you can’t tell in review mode in camera. The o rings help to keep the button screwed in—no issue at this time with it coming off.These shutter release buttons have helped tremendously, along with holding my breath as I click the shutter. Plus, the colors are attractive and a good overall value for something that’s actually necessary and useful.

Nice looking buttons that come loose easily
These are some solidly built buttons wich look great on my X-T20. Although each button comes with two o-rings, they come loose very quickly. I took my X-T20 with me for a trip and realized that the button started to get unscrewed pretty quickly. I tightened it again and again, but it was then just a matter of time until I lost the first one. If you find a red one in the Lincoln Center area in New York City--that's mine.Update: Button number 2 is now gone as well. I am traveling again but this time paid even more attention to the button, checking multiple times per day. It was sitting pretty tight on the release until today, when it was suddenly gone. I am taking off a star--for the lack of a proper fit and the lackluster customer service.

if you are using a Fuji X camera, these are the soft release buttons you want
It took me a few tries but I should have learned from my X-T20 to stick with VKO when it comes to soft release buttons. I bought a pair for the X-T20 and tried a different brand for my X100F and had to return them. The VKO ones fit perfectly and flush while others never seat properly. Save your time and money and get the VKO if you have Fuji X-series cameras.

if you like soft shutter release buttons, these are excellent.
if you like the feel of a larger, convex shutter release button, these are for you. the fit is facilitated with the included rubber o-rings, ensuring they stay tight and don't inadvertently come off. the finish is excellent; evenly coated while the black and red feature a glossy look, the gray having a matte look and texture.these are seemingly made of brass, although i can't be certain. i am sure they're not made of aluminum, judging purely by their weight in hand, compared to a known aluminum shutter release button of the same size. to me, that extra bit of weight makes a difference in the feel of my shutter release. combining the extra weight, surface area and profile results in damping the original feel of the shutter release and making it easier for me to get a controlled, shake-free release.

Scratch easy but do their job.
I really wanted to love these as they fit perfectly on my Fuji XT2’s, however after just a couple days of use they are already showing excessive scratching and wear.The good news is they seem to fit well on Fuji cameras, I haven’t had any issues with them falling out yet or becoming loose. I installed them the day before a wedding and they were still there at the end of the day.Unfortunately neither Red color matched the red on the dials / lens exactly. A little smaller diameter (convex version) than other brands. I’ll be buying some with a better finish when I lose these.

Well made and nicely finished
I have purchased a few of these buttons for all the cameras that can take them (Fuji X-Pro and Leica) and all I can say is that the finish and manufacture seem high quality. My favorite ones are the convex type, as they allow my fingertip to apply a more even pressure on the shutter release button. The colors are cheerful and add a vibrant touch to any camera.

Rubber rings make the difference...
I had previously bought a 2-pack of soft shutter buttons for my Fuji X30, but without the rubber rings, and promptly lost both as they unscrewed themselves and fell out. These ones (all metal with a nice glossy finish in three colors) come with two very small rubber rings/gaskets each (total of six for the three-pack). With the rubber rings, these buttons stay on tight and don't turn and loosen themselves. The buttons themselves are great...the shutter release on the X30 is sort of small, and these make it easier to take a picture without fumbling for the button.

These fit my camera perfectly and make it a lot ...
These fit my camera perfectly and make it a lot easier to find the right button in the dark, since too many of them feel the same. I can also shoot pictures with gloves on with these. I got multiple ones because somehow other people loosen them nd lose them when they use my camera. I do not hve that problem as the buttons come with tiny rubber bands that keep them from turning on their own.

Bling...
So I got back to photography after 15 years, very excited with my new Fuji X100V! But soon noticed everyone on YouTube showing their camera(s) fitted with these "buttons", a novelty (to me) apparently invented to enhance the camera... sensitivity (!?). I fitted a dark red one on my black X100V and admittedly it looks cool. Other than that, it is completely useless (actually I got several unintentional shots) and probably a risk because the factory shutter gets more exposed to hits, force etc. I wouldn't recommend unless you are inclined to fads. EDIT: two days later it disappeared, and I am glad it did.

brilliant.
purchased for my new Fujifilm X-T3 as I found the shutter button a little low. These come in 3 different colours and most importantly the come with the rubber washers. ( be careful of purchasing ones without the washers as they all tend to come loose and fall out).Now I can feel the button and have no worries of missing that important shot.Brilliant purchase

Cheap bit of bling!
It's questionable if these do anything other than look cool but for that purpose as a bit of fun I am very happy. I bought a three pack and they came inside a little VKO branded box. Each button was individually packaged in a little bag with 2 little o-rings. They are indeed metal as advertised and feel well made. The paint looks to have been applied to a reasonable standard too so expecting them to stand upto some use. For the price I paid I am very happy and can recommend.

Used 3 times a week for 4 weeks - satisfied customer
I bought the convex buttons.These are very similar to JJC's rival product, in price, appearance etc.My JJC button fell off after 20 mins (and was lost). My VKO button has been on my Fujifilm X100F for 4 weeks (and used 3 times a week). Both products have a rubber grommet(?) to reduce likelihood of it coming off.I'm not saying the JJC is inferior. I can only say that, having learned my lesson, I routinely tighten the VKO during use. Having said that, the VKO rarely, if ever, feels close to coming off.

Nice touch to your camera
Adds a nice practical touch to the shutter button. Important to tighten firmly, my first attempt wasn't and fortunately fell off in my camera bag.
