About this product

VG-C5 Vertical Grip for comfortable grip when shooting in the vertical orientation.

Features

  • The same grip hold and control layout as the α9 III for vertical orientation

    The VG-C5 Vertical Grip has been designed to provide the same secure hold and control access as the camera’s own horizontal grip, delivering outstanding comfort and operability for long shooting sessions.

  • Efficient utilization of two batteries for extended shooting

    The VG-C5 Vertical Grip can house two NP-FZ100 batteries, and circuitry refinements support parallel power supply to provide longer operating duration than the VG-C4EM Vertical Grip. The time remaining for both batteries is simultaneously shown on the camera display so the user can continue shooting with confidence.

  • Versatile and accessible controls and useful features

    The VG-C5 Vertical Grip provides an easy-access sliding battery tray, tripod mount socket, camera strap attachment points, AF ON / AEL / C1 / C2 / C5 buttons, Multi Selector, and Rear dial R lock, and supports power and charging via the camera’s USB Type-C connector2.

  • Robust and durable internal construction

    With lightweight, high-rigidity magnesium alloy for its internal frame, the VG-C5 offers outstanding durability. It’s built to withstand challenging professional environments while remaining compact and lightweight.

  • Part of a durable, reliable system

    With the same dust and moisture resistant design as the camera body itself, the VG-C5 Vertical Grip functions as part of a dependable system that will keep working reliably even in challenging conditions.

    Love it.

    If you’re a serious photographer or videographer, you absolutely need the Sony A9III Battery Grip in your gear arsenal. I recently got my hands on this incredible accessory, and it has transformed the way I shoot! Firstly, the build quality is impeccable. The grip fits seamlessly with the A9III, creating a solid and comfortable hold that makes extended shooting sessions a breeze. The added weight actually enhances stability, making it easier to capture those perfect shots without any camera shake. Battery life? It’s a game-changer. With this grip, I can now shoot all day long without worrying about running out of power. It accommodates two NP-FZ100 batteries, doubling my shooting time and giving me the confidence to tackle long events or shoots without missing a beat. Another highlight is the additional controls. The extended shutter release and customizable buttons are a huge plus, allowing me to adjust settings on the fly without having to move my hands. It’s like having an extra set of hands! The build quality is second to none – robust, durable, and weather-sealed. I’ve taken this grip through rain, dust, and extreme temperatures, and it has performed flawlessly every time. If you’re looking to maximize the potential of your Sony A9III, don’t hesitate to invest in this battery grip. It’s worth every penny for the added functionality and convenience it provides. Highly recommended for any serious shooter!

    Great for long lenses

    I really love the vertical grips for Sony cameras—especially if you use long lenses. It helps counterbalance the weight. The buttons are fully available and make it easy to switch orientations without contorting yourself into a pretzel to get them. Having two batteries available extends shooting time, which is awesome. It does add weight and it is fairly expensive (like most Sony gear), but worth the expense for long lens shooters.
