Review on πŸ§€ HOT SHOE CHEESE HANDLE for Canon 5D 7D 60D 70D DSLR Camera, Compatible with Nikon D800 - NICEYRIG by Jay Hill

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent customer service - 5 stars for that!

I installed it on my Canon 80d with Sigma 18-35, but unfortunately this pin does not fit directly into the hot shoe. The bottom shoe mount on this grip is too small to fit snugly in my camera's hot shoe. Therefore, no matter how you put it on, it swings either to the left or to the right. So to get ultra-stable frames it will not work. So I ask myself: did I get a defect? UPDATE: The bottom of my device is loose and I think that's why it's wobbly. I took it apart to try and tighten it but it wouldn't tighten anymore. (Bad details?) I'm stuck with a wobbly top handle. So it's basically a paperweight. UPDATE UPDATE: I contacted Niceyrig and they had fantastic customer service! They sent me a replacement for free (and they said it was their updated model)! After receiving it very quickly, I tried it and it's great. I am changing my rating from 1 star to 5 stars. The replaceable top handle is solid and doesn't wobble at all. I tried it and it seems MUCH better than before. Happy to use!
