Looking for a an adapter without a grip. Saw the Manfrotto Adapter
that could make it work. However, I need to confirm if it will be able to use a quick release with it? I have a 488RC2
head.

Got the Camadapter plate today and installed it with a Markin Hand Strap. The adapter is great. Fits on the 488RC2 head just like OEM. Now I'm back to using a hand strap. Feels more secure and easier to hold the camera.

For me, a grip is a must for the Rebel Xs due to its small size.

Do you happen to have some images of your gripped xs? - 5DmarkII | EF 24-70L F2.8 | EF 70-200L F4 | 580EX II | Gitzo 1541T w/ Photoclam Pro-34NS -
