Great battery grip, would definitely buy again. Adds alot of shooting time and you dont have to worry about running out of juice especially running 2 genuine canon batts. The controls on grip also have a switch that they can be turned on or off which adds to convenience of grip.

My battery seemed to drain quickly before. Much easier to shoot vertical with the extra shutter button. Fits camera perfectly.

I have used battery grips on all 5 Canon camera's I have had since the 10D and it is one of the most useful accessories you can get. It makes holding the camera much easier as there is a lot more area to hold on to. This latest grip has even more of the controls duplicated from the main camera body which helps when using the camera 90 degrees from the normal position. My only issue is that every time they come out with a new model you have to buy a new grip because the old one is not compatible but that is due to changes in body and feature design - it's a tough thing to accept due to the cost of the grip but if you can get past the price you will be happy with it. Look for it on sale to ease the pain. I wouldn't go without it though, battery life is much longer with 2 batteries. I never use the internal flash so I get a lot of time between charges on the batteries. It has an adapter so you can use AA batteries if you need to.

This is a great addition to your camera body if you want to go all day without a recharge. Note: Use the double Lithium combo or you will spend a fortune on AA batteries
