I got the .75 green cam just to check these out. I've seen them on some racks but had heard mixed reviews about them. I already had doubles for big hands to fists and decided to get something for hands to fingers. Now that I have it I've been impressed. It seems very useful at doubling or tripling a rack and since they have great range it's nice to just grab this guy and it fits. This cam always goes up with me and soon so will the .5,1 and 2. These cams do have some down side. The cams do weigh a bit more than other cams, but if you are unsure about a section and don't know the size yet then you can bring 1 cam rather than a few cams. I prefer the thumb loop that the c4's have as opposed to this type, but it's not a big deal. All in all cams often come down to people's preference. I grab my c4's first and keep this one for back up on my harness, because I know once I run out of a size of cam then this will fit somewhere.
