The extra grip for me adds certain functionality that I just couldn’t do without, the main one being the vertical shutter release and controls. When you are shooting heavily with little time to play around, it is nice and so less awkward to be able to throw the camera into a vertical ” Brisbane portrait photography ” position and feel just at home as in “landscape” mode.

This was all emphasised even more when I upgraded to the EOS 20D that Canon had made even smaller. In my hands it felt almost like a toy so the Canon battery grip BG-E2 was fitted immediately. Once again, all was well.

The way I plan to carry a camera has changed too. I very seldom have it around my neck and use the strap to wrap around my wrist for security (from dropping as well as “snatch” theft). I incline to hold it by one of the grips, either the built in side grip or the added battery pack grip.

As you can see from this image, by adding the Canon battery grip, both grips become the same length, again making life just a little easier. Also, don not forget one very important point…what the grip is accurately for…adding additional battery power!

The additional life in your camera could be the difference between getting all the shots and just most of the shots…quite an important issue if you shoot weddings etc. This battery grip now is onle manufactured for canon nikon, not for sony apple Toshiba.

If you haven’t tried your camera with a grip, give it a go or better still just buy one, you won’t be disappointed and it will add to the resale value when you come to upgrade and lets face it, they look good too! The best price I have found, and where I bought my grip for the EOS 20D was B and H. They have just about every accessory you can think about at the best prices, and they deliver on time too.If you want to know something about Brisbane corporate photography and Brisbane portrait photographer ,kindly click on the links in this article.
