Stinks, doesn't it? It's no BG-10.

Thats what I'm looking forward to; hoping that the functionality overrides the
mediocre ergonomics... particularly with the controls that you mentioned. I
can at least say that I agree about the balance part, particularly with a
heavy lens like the Sigma 24-70 1:2.8. I used that combo last night at a
birthday party, and the rig just felt lop-sided. Feels better with the grip,
though. So it's a plus. $160 plus? thats still TBD.
