I have one of these, but can't usually bring myself to using it as it's inconvenient to go back and forth between handheld and mounted on a tripod. It would have been so much better with an integrated quick release plate of some variety. There is an offset plate
JOBY UltraPlate Quick Release Plate for DLSRs you can get seperately that takes care of this if you think it would be an issue (I haven't gotten around to picking one up yet). If you do get a plate make sure it's compatible with whatever tripod you've already picked up.
Apart from that, it's quite nice.
