Questions & Answers

How can I use a PC to connect to the grip?

There is no PC port on the grip. The only extra port is for a remote control. If you don't use it, it's just an additional set of controls. The shutter release button, the Multi Function Button, the on and off switch, and the ISO/Shutter Speed Dial make up the controls. Here are some tips that may help!

Can you tell me what cameras this fits? Do you recommend it for the Canon 70d camera? Can you tell me if it fits?

That's unlikely to be the case. My Canon EOS r is a mirrorless camera that fits the adapter.

Do you have 2 batteries with this ?

The battery lasts for a long time
5/5

As a bonus, when I got this battery grip for my EOS R, I discovered that the battery grip came with a USB wall plug so that you could charge the batteries with a wall charger An Ethernet connection using the C standard. It is a great feature that I never have to remove the batteries from the grip for charging, not to mention the longer battery life. The unit makes the EOS R exactly the right size, it is not too big or too Please note The batteries in the camera can be charged via USB In order to use the Canon LP-C plug, you'll need the latest battery.

This grip is awesome
5/5

It's finally here! It just feels much more familiar and much sturdier in my hand when it has a grip, and it makes it feel even more anchored in my hand. All my DSLRs have grips, and it makes them much more familiar and much sturdier.

This completes the process of transforming In my most recent shooting, I used a semi-automatic weapon Having used a pro camera for many years, I have always used a battery grip or motor winder
5/5

The increased usability and functionality of these devices is very appealing to me. It never felt comfortable for me to use a smaller camera because I have large hands. Heavy weights provide a sense of stability and add to the overall feel. Also, I like the way I can shoot vertically while staying in the same and familiar places and maintaining a good grip. Despite the fact that it is cheap, the camera actually "feels" professional in terms of its design and usability. It would also be nice to double the shooting time before changing batteries. The much cheaper "Clones"in the $40-$80 range have always been the ones I have used Earlier I owned cameras in the $60 range and I must confess they were very good and reliable. Their durability and fit and finish were very good. Nevertheless, the fit and finish is excellent and a world away from the cheaper imitations. This was a very expensive vacation, but it was definitely worth it. There are no errors in the code. Despite the color and finish differences, the finish matches perfectly. This camera's rubber portion matches the grip material on the grip exactly, with the graining matching the grip material on the camera. I like the way the buttons match the materials and how the fit is perfect. I believe this is a very transformational experience. Adding it to the camera will bulk it up. Yes, it does ad weight. It is not the best choice if you are looking to keep your EOS R light and portable. This is a much better professional work tool if you aim to make it that way, then I urge you to get it as soon as you can.

This is a good grip, but it is missing one of the most important features Having a second battery grip for my SLR is a real blessing
4/5

Previous to that, we had a T4i grip made by a third party. The EOS-specific grip that I purchased at the time was not as readily available as one made by a 3rd party It is important to clarify that, while using the 3rd party grip with my T4i, I have never encountered any issues that would have caused me to wish I had a Canon camera. To be honest, I wasn't too bothered with having to pay the higher price for Canon brand grips. I am however very unhappy with this grip, as I lost a very important feature from my T4i that was much, much cheaper. It uses AA batteries so that the battery sled can be used. Considering that the rechargable batteries lose their charge after resting for a month or so and I use the DSLR only once or twice a month (family gatherings, etc), I have had too many instances in which I went to grab my camera and all four batteries were low. I could just manage my batteries more effectively, yes. My problem is that I do not. I was glad that I could simply throw them on the charger and grab the AA insert which contained fresh AA batteries, so I could start shooting immediately. Due to this grip, I am no longer able to do that. Since I now have to track the batteries for a longer period of time even when it's not used, I probably should have a backup for long trips. However, as the batteries age and their capacities decline, I will eventually need a backup for long trips. I can no longer simply carry some spare AA batteries in my back as a backup, so I will have to buy I'm sure that this may not matter to a lot of you out there, but I am certain that it can impact a small number of you. A 3rd party grip manufacturer should come out with their own version that can accept AA batteries. Either Canon or Canon will offer an add-on tray for AA batteries. As a result of the fairly specific grip above, the grip works perfectly fine, as you would expect. The buttons on the grip correspond to the buttons on the camera. Any add-on grip can be mounted on the strap using the same mounting points. There is a USB charge port, but at the same time I dislike that they recommend only using Canon batteries with it. When I use the USB charging port I have to switch out the batteries to only the Canon batteries, as Canon has warned of the risk of damage if you do not. With all the battery issues out there, I don't want to risk that their system causes a fire inside my The situation would be better handled on a wall wart charger, if it were to occur. While the grip is generally good, I don't like that it is missing a crucial feature that I consider crucial in my opinion. It is extremely important to me not to be able to use AAs as a backup. In the end, I took a star off for those who might not care, even though many may not care.

The EOS R is almost impossible to live without
5/5

My background is in fashion photography and I've been doing it for almost 40-years The past year. Though I am reluctantly adopting mirrorless into my camera kit, I have done so. that all Canon lenses have fast AF and are stellar. Although the battery grip adds some weight, it gives my hand a solid grip on the camera, as well as a feature that is nearly indispensable. There is a USB port for charging the grip (requires I like the addition of C), even though it isn't absolutely necessary for me. In addition to its effectiveness in balancing the body, the grip is also very comfortable.

As soon as it is attached, you will not want to It comes with a charger you just plug in
5/5

My large hands are made easier with my pinky finger helping to grip this. It is very convenient, charges both batteries at the same time. Vertical shots don't appeal to me too much. I find that the grip makes the handle feel much more stable when I grip it. The first time I saw it, I wasn't crazy about it, probably because of Since I put it back on the second time, it has never been taken off. There is a tendency for most reviews to be the same in forums. The first time I mixed it, but then I couldn't The batteries are also saved from having to be changed. As a wedding photographer, I can help. It's a good idea to keep a spare in my pocket in case of emergency. Charging is simple, I just plug in my phone when I want to download A 128gig UHS-I card is a great choice It is easy to shoot RAW files all day long with just one card. The last dance begins as soon as you get ready.

That is very expensive
3/5

So yes, it is helpful to have a longer battery life, but is it worth over $250 just so you don't have to change batteries? It might be worth it to return in now that I have received it, but I bought it because I thought it would be worth it. It's only purpose is so that you can put in two batteries at a time instead of just one. Canon sells this product for one of the most overpriced prices I've ever seen.
