Digital camera reviews of Opteka Professional Wrist Grip Strap for Digital & Film SLR Cameras
Digital camera Review: A Must Have for DSLR Video
Summary: 5 Stars
Before I purchased my Opteka Pro Wrist Grip, I read quite a few of the 1 and 2 star reviews. I was a little concerned until I read one reviewer point out that this strap isn't intended for smaller DSLR's. I can confirm that he is correct. I bought this for my Canon 60D. When I first got the strap, I hadn't yet received my battery grip. Without the battery grip attached to the camera body, the strap is a little uncomfortable, it restricts movement, but still pretty great. With the battery grip attached to the camera body, this strap makes holding a pretty solid camera body/lens combo feel amazing.
As for the title of this review, "A Must Have for DSLR Video"; just consider how annoying the lanyard strap would be while trying to hand hold for video or have the camera on a tripod. If you can't imagine it, it's super annoying. But the alternative of removing the lanyard, and just trusting your grip is pretty scary.
So far I'm loving it, but it's only been one week. If I change my mind, I will update this review.
