I had managed to end up with two vertical parts of the Power Bounce Grip
and only one bracket so I managed to get my handy father-in-law to
convert one to work with my 350D. He managed to use the existing shutter
release button but make it two position and added a new 2.5mm stereo
jack socket, so it would work with the 350D. I need to use a off camera
shoe cord, and it works great in full auto mode - not so good in Av mode
since I can't reach the wheel to change the aperture.
Mike.
