5 out of 5 stars A must have   August 31, 2008
N. Mandel
Adds even more battery power. It seems that I need to recharge my 5D every few thousand frames if that. I feel comfortable leaving for a few days without my charger packed. It also makes the 5D look like a 1D series camera

It's a must for any serious and almost serious shooter! Giving you the flexibility of having the extra battery and also of having a regular AA size battery holder for those times when you forget to recharge your Canon batteries, the BG-E4 also extends your ability of shooting in portrait mode. It also adds the benefits of camera stability when shooting slower speeds than 1/30. I have shot up to 1/8 of a second handheld with good results.

As always, the Canon Brand battery/verticle grips are well made and top notch. This is the 6th one I have owned between various Film and Digital SLRs. I ounce tried a third party grip on a 30D...will never try that again.

I never carry my 5D without this grip. It allows me to shoot all day and to go vertical with the controls at the proper location. I keep one on my secondary camera as well. If you plan to do some all day shooting, this is a must have.


5 out of 5 stars Canon 5D Battery Grip   July 23, 2008
Robert Pavelsky (Corona, CA USA)
Before I bought this Canon BG-E4 I succumbed to a less expensive knockoff. MISTAKE!!! I became unhappy with the knockoff after only a few days of shooting pictures of my granddaughter. I then purchased the Canon Battery Grip and it was a world of difference. The Canon grip is actually much easier to use. I like having double battery power, and an extra shutter button on the grip. I have found that it also seems to give my 5D a more balanced feel, and a more secure feeling when I am holding it. This accessory completes a great setup for the 5D.
