40 Marginal -Save Your $$
Score: 40 | Posted by P. DURGIN

Conclusion: Using this will only demonstrate to you that you'd be better off putting some money away until you can get the real thing. While it may be better than nothing, picture quality is sub-par at the edges. Used it once - never again. Have since bought the...

100 Nice lens for the price.
Score: 100 | Posted by Harry "Arabuk"
See it at Amazon
Conclusion: Basically this works by screwing onto the end of your lens like a filter. There is a conversion ring for the Cannon lens, a 58 series VII (46mm to 58mm) adapter. It does open up the wide angle aspect of the lens, but it also cuts down on the light you...

40 works fine

Conclusion: This product works as advertised. It's not the most sturdy constuction, but is does what it needs to... trigger the shutter. I have not seen the Canon version, so cannot really compare, but as for the Opteka cable release I feel that the actual cord part...

80 Great, but with one flaw.
Score: 80 | Posted by N. Ho "photog" (chicago) -
See it at Amazon
Conclusion: This is a great accessory. It helps balance the camera with a large lens, your pinky has somewhere to go, you can use the e-1 handstrap, and the battery door has a place to be stored in the grip. The problem is that there is a bit of flex between the...

80 Works great, No problems.
Score: 80 | Posted by lynchfreak23 "lynchfreak23" (Los Angeles, CA) -

Conclusion: I had looked at the other non-brand grips and read a lot of reviews and decided that you get what you pay for. Everything worked fine for me straight out of the box.

100 Wouldn't shoot without it.
Score: 100 | Posted by Mark Rogers (Portland, OR USA) -
See it at Amazon
Conclusion: I'll never again shoot without a verti grip. Even for landscape oriented shots, I have more camera to hold on to and that means a steadier shot and more comfort. In vertical shots, I can't imagine going back. The controls are perfectly placed and it...

80 Works Well
Score: 80 | Posted by Christopher R. Girou "Hawklover" (Bethlehem, Pa) -
See it at Amazon
Conclusion: I purchased this grip for my Canon 40D and overall am happy with it. This item is a must have to balance your camera when you are using a large lens such as the 100-400mm. I will add though that it is just a little loose even though the tightening screw...

80 Does one thing well
Score: 80 | Posted by Mobius "definitive" (Folsom, CA United States) -
See it at Amazon
Conclusion: Aside form the fact that Canon charges an arm and a leg for a 1 dollar piece of plastic, the remote switch does work well. It does not feel very sturdy and does not seem nearly as well built as the Canon cameras. People with big hands may have a little...

20 Very LOW quality
Score: 20 | Posted by Harold N. Moore -
See it at Amazon
Conclusion: This item is very LOW quality. I ordered two of these (one for a back up). BOTH of them stopped working after one or two days. Both had LOW QUALITY electrical wire in which one or more inner wires separated/broke making them useless. I repaired them and...
