Great product!, fits well in your hand , makes the camera feel secure ,but also gives you the sensation of freedom so you can adjust the camera settings without any problems
Very well constructed , with soft padding for your hand and strong adjustable straps to customize the fitting.
Also the price is remarkable low, a must in your camera bag.

I bought this for use with my 40D. I was doing a lot of shooting with the camera held in one hand and a flash held in the other. The trouble was, I couldn't really operate the camera with one hand. For example, after shooting a couple of frames, I would want to switch to playback mode and review the images. I found I couldn't press the "play" button with the hand holding the camera. So I was left juggling the camera and the flash.
I thought that with this strap, I would be able to completely hold and operate the camera with one hand. Unfortunately when you have your hand in the strap and the camera is completely hanging off one hand, you CANNOT reach any of the buttons. The shutter release is the only thing that you can reach, and that's awkward. The problem is the camera hangs down, leaving your thumb way above any of the buttons. If you want to press any of the buttons on the camera, you need to hold it with your other hand.

This is by far my most favorite accessory for my camera. I hate having the neck strap dangling all over. This is very comfortable. A couple of things could be improved. The actual strap needs a little more reinforcement. I think the metal piece on the camera will eventually cut through the nylon before the rest of the strap will wear out. The strap could be a little wider. When it passes through the padded section, that tends to bend over on itself because the strap is very narrow. I love having the camera attached to my hand. I took the camera out in New Orleans on Bourbon Street and felt completely safe like no one would try and rip it out of my hands or cut the strap and run. Overall, I would not hesitate to buy another one when this one wears out, even without the needed changes.

Works like a charm. Soft, yet grippy. Only bad side is the anchor that screws into the base of the camera is a little bulky, but that's probably required for it to be durable. Overall, the hand strap is a very nice, less clumsy alternative to the neck strap.

I was surprised how comfortable this grip strap is!
I have a Nikon D80 with a vertical grip and this product fits perfectly!
