Editorial Product Review:

Item Description:
The Canon BG-E5 Vertical Grip/Battery Holder holds up to 2 LP-E5 battery packs simultaneously to effectively double your shooting power, plus the grip includes a holder to use six AA batteries. In addition, the grip includes a vertical shutter release and a mode wheel to provide access to all of the camera functions and make shooting with the camera in a vertical position just as comfortable as shooting horizontally. ++ The LP-E5 Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery, has a capacity of 1500 mAh, so it is possible to shoot up to 1000 shots at normal temperatures on a single battery charge. The battery is also more compact and lighter in weight than previous battery models. The LP-E5 Battery communicates with the EOS Digital Camera, so that you can always check the remaining capacity on the camera's power source info screen.

Customer Rating: - OK purchase
Adds some complexity and weight to the camera ... next time I'd buy the after-market grip.
