<<The only drawback to the softie is that, because it sticks up from the top
of the body, it is easilly tripped in the camera bag or by the users
clothing. Thus the rubber band. When looped around the softie it keeps the
shutter being accidentally tripped..>>

I must be missing something, but wouldn't putting a rubber band around a
cocked shutter trip it? And if it's not cocked, why do you need a rubber
band?
