Ive been putting off buying the BG E4 grip for my canon 5D, well I finally bought one and all I can say is wow. The grip really help with the balance of the 5D and having another shutter button is a real plus.
Should of made the purchase long ago. For those of you unable to decide weather or not to get a grip, you need to give it a try.

Yep, and the 5D is nicer than the 20D, 30D, 40D grip. Ive always had a grip on my cameras. Sometimes though when I want to go light Ill take it off.

Yup, just got my grip for my 5D about 3 weeks ago. That's when I realized my Stroboframe would no longer fit with the grip so I got a Custom Bracket flash bracket and now it all works great.

What's so fancy about the 5D grip?
