: Your favorite?

Mine is the Motor Drive 1. I always have one attached on the 4Ti, without a
power source, just for better handling.
It makes a world of difference, specially for vertical shots when longer and
heavier lenses (tele, zoom) are mounted, and/or a heavy flash. The unit also
allows me to carry the camera in one hand, not using a strap. With vertical
shots I've learned to fire the shutter with the thumb, allowing the Motor
Drive grip to rest in the palm of my hands, which feels relaxed,
facilitating holding the camera steady. Without the Motor Drive to me the
combination feels unsteady and uncomfortable holding it vertical.
