1 out of 5 stars You gotta have a battery grip, if you want to use it   September 4, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I didn't know I should have a battery grip for using this. So if you guys want to use it and do not have a battery grip, don't buy this, otherwise, you should either return this product to the seller or need to buy a battery grip, which seems to me wagging the dog.


4 out of 5 stars It's ok.   September 1, 2008
It's a hand strap. You might love it, you might hate it. How should I know? I like mine fine.


5 out of 5 stars Use WITHOUT Battery Grip   August 2, 2008
You can use this strap without having the battery grip attached by purchasing the Opteka hand grip since it includes a plate that screws to the bottom with a slot to thread the cord. This is what I have done as I prefer the Canon strap to the Opteka strap. Currently the Opteka strap on Amazon is only about $8, well worth it in my opinion to use this awesome strap instead when you don't need the battery grip.


4 out of 5 stars Does the Job   July 26, 2008
Comfortable. Does the job. Takes away that concern you might loose your grip.
As many others have already said, however, I wish the thing came with instructions.



5 out of 5 stars Can't Live Without It!   June 30, 2008
I'm on my second Canon DSLR(a Rebel XT and now a 40D). Both Have had wrist grips, on my Rebel I used a knock of Kata Model. On my new 40 I opted to go with the E1. Once it was on I immediately noticed the difference in comfort, the canon version has a little more cushioning which really makes a difference after a full day of shooting.
This wrist strap is maybe the most important accessory second or equal to the battery grip. Once your dealing with a heavy camera and a lot of glass it's impossible to put a long lens on and still use the neckstrap, its too much weight on that part of your body.
The only downsides I found were this version unlike the cheaper one didn't come with a tripod mount, so if your not using the grip there is no where to put the strap if I recall!
I would highly highly recommend this and for anyone looking to get into the hobby more seriously it is a must have.
