Spend $3500 on camera and then skimp on the grip? I tried a 3rd party grip on my 5D2 and although it worked, the build quality didnt match the 5D body. The color was not a perfect match. The door never opened/closed easily. The plastic grip body felt oh so cheap. I never trusted the tripod socket. The shutter button got so soft over time. It was a Zeikos brand.

I'll wait for the Canon. Its good that there an alternative for the ones who want to save some money.
