Will be interested to learn how it works out in the field.
Have spent most the evening looking at alternatives to the Wimberley, just wondering if it's all positive or if there are any bad words to be said about it as I'm currently saving up hard for one!
As to the Wimberley go for it, makes handling a long heavy lens a breeze plus a quality bit of kit.

One hand holding the camera and the other hand resting on the lens barrel above the tripod head operating the shutter.

Hi Tom, can I ask how / why you are intending to use this?
What I had in mind is, using the long lens technique, one hand resting on the lens barrel above the tripod head etc.
If the shutter was operated from there it may reduce vibration even further.
If you would like a picture of what I have put together so far just let me know.

I used a soft strap, bit of shaped cork and a circuit board mounted micro switch!

Anyone aware of a commercial produced Lens mounted remote shutter release?
Managed to put one together myself which seems to work quite well but wondered if there was a better quality one on the market.
