Just picked up a used BG-E11 (first party, not a knock-off) for my 5D3.
Everything seems snugged up and secure and all the buttons, joystick, etc. work fine.
Was curious about carrying this beast around now. Do the gripped EF lens shooters here trust the grip's threaded mount for a BlackRapid strap attachment?
The BR strap has been 100% stable/secure when attached to the native body even with my largest lens (70-200 f/2.8L IS II), but I'm curious if 'stacking' the thread assembly like that has been associated with loosening, drops, damage to the 5D3's native threads, etc.
Please advise, oh wise CR forum dwellers. Thx.
