good grip --so far Sep 23, 2009 i just purchased this because my opteka loosened up when screwed it into the monopod instead of the tele lens (yeah, i know and dont ask), so i figured i'll try something else--the box on it said 'janis' is the manufacturer. i did not have any quirky problems as others discussed with super gluing a button, etc. to keep it turned on. i have had it for about two weeks and have done 2 shoots so far with no problems. also tested the infrared remote--no issues.
cons: the lcd is definitely weak and buttons dont feel like the canon's (feels cheap), especially the roller wheels. also, it does not come with (2) batteries as with the opteka. it uses catridges for either stock canon or AA batteries. i would have preferred less moving parts.
pros: i ordered thru satechi and was very impressed with their customer service and follow-up. i would definitely order from them again. the other positive is that it comes with a AA battery cartridge just in case it's needed in an emergency.

LCD timer vertical battery grip for canon 40d/with remote control Jan 25, 2009 First after using this item I would buy this unit again[most likley will]
looking at a 50d to add to my need's. This unit is very well built, very
comfortable, has great features and really adds to the handling of my
40d it is so far a great addition to photography equipment I use.

Does not work as described with 40D. Jan 15, 2009 In some aspects this product is fine, in others it is poor.
The bad:
The long exposure function does not work with my 40D. In any mode, execept bulb mode, the picture is only taken at the shutter speed indicated by the camera. If the grip is set to take a 5 second exposure, the camera will actually take multiple shots over 5 seconds. In bulb mode (which the instructions suggest will allow you to take long exposures), the 40D takes a fast shot but labels it as 1" even if the timer is set to take a long exposure such as 20 seconds or several minutes. It seems the timer functions of the grip are not just triggering the shutter, but there is some other communication with the camera that just doesn't work right.
The good:
It is actually made of a metal frame where it mounts to the camera, and only the outside is plastic. I had no problems with it engaging fully and found the option of using AA batteries as well as using the remote to be nice.
Overall:
If I had not expected to take long exposures with this, I would be very happy with the vertical grip, battery options, time lapse, and remote. However, because I wanted to take long exposures and I feel that the instructions and product description say it will, I am left with a poor experience.

Great Idea, Poorly executed... Dec 12, 2008 It is by far more useful than the Canon original battery grip, but the construction isn't that good. I returned the first one and the second one didn't quite fit the camera either. (30D)
So I got the money back and ordered Canon's Batt Grip, with less features, but rock solid.
BTW: Satechi has an excellent customer support team.
Keep shooting!

Looks good-feels good-problem with latch on battery door. Nov 12, 2008 I love the way it looks and feels.but when you turn the camera in a vertical position, the snap botton does not work. there is a latch on the battery compartment door that needs to be super glued so that it stays down. with that done, the snap works ok. If you don't want this kind of a problem I suggest that you get another unit.
