Have you got the head yet and if so how are you finding it? I'm looking at the exact same combo atm although need another months wage to come in until I have enough to buy. Think I need to get down to a local shop and have a play :)

I got the cable to use my Samsung Galaxy S2 phone as a backup device with 32Gb microSD in the phone and USB sticks to store seperately while away travelling. Have just purchased the DSLR Controller app and was having a quick play over the weekend but need to spend some more time with it...
