You need a decent case. I found a very slim, rigid InCase jacket with a lightly rubberized surface texture that will make it much easier to grip securely. I bought it even though I don't own the phone yet as these things come in and out of production so fast ... On a similar theme, I ordered a leather half-case for the M9 as its beautiful, crisp, smooth edges and corners can pose a challenge in gripping it securely. I have another half-case that I use on the M4-2 for the same purpose ... to make gripping and holding the camera easier. The easier it is to hold a camera securely without a lot of finger pressure, the steadier you can hold it and the lower the light you can use it in without camera motion blur. The Olympus E-1 is magnificent in this regard.
