If so, are you pleased with your purchase? Just wondering whether to get one or not.
Thanks.

For me it is a perfect fit for holding the camera, and it made the camera a LOT easier to hold on to, as well as easing my fear of dropping it. It is expensive, but I have never regretted spending the money on it. The curved portion fits my index finger perfectly, and I consider that a key advantage over the other choices I looked at when I got it. Not familiar with the flipbac mentioned above, but the price sounds much better. _______________

Dec 20, 2012 19:45 | #8 Update: The grip is now installed and it was a worthwhile purchase. Makes the camera very easy to hold. I recommend it for anyone who is on the fence about getting one. The more expensive one seems to be more elegant, but the less expensive one (that I have) works just fine. Marci

Save $30. It's as black as the camera so nobody even notices it and it works perfectly. JDL

Maybe the best $10 I ever spent! Rubber surface and shape solves the basic gripping problem I've had for years with this small flat camera. Was not aware it even existed until reading a post in this forum. pfjohnsonphotography.com, pfjphoto.com, Baldwin, MD
