They were produced I think in Long Beach, CA. The palm grips were as described, a "knob" with a mounting screw built in. They were of several shapes ( look like maybe I bought the prototypes) and made of aluminum. It goes to show you there are no new ideas, only re-inventions. I used them with long lenses for a few years, then put them away... looks like I need to resurrect them again..... BTW, while I wish I had the 280 lens to go with it, I do not. In fact I am not yet the owner of a R series camera yet.....yet.... yet..... Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net
