Great if you like changing them out, or if you don't use a tripod. My camera is on and off the tripod a lot, so that's just not going to work for me.

I use a Canon 40D with Canon battery grip, and wonder if the tripod adaptor socket on the grip is strong enough to support the weight of camera, grip and a zoom lens. Does anyone have info on this?

I just ordered one. I hope it works for me as well as it is shown in that impressive vid! I carry a second body around with me at weddings and having two camera neck straps that are the same can get a bit of a nuisance. This looks slick as a$$. Hey! I just ordered one.
