The Jenis battery grip handle C400DS

Specifications

  • Battery Grip for EOS 350D/400D (identical to Canon BG-E3)
  • Fitted with 6 x AA batteries or two NB-2LH Batteries
  • Weight 340g with battery packs (210g empty)
  • Vertical shutter release
  • AE / FE lock
  • AF point selection button
  • Additional key Blenden-/Belichtungskorrektur
  • Additional Hauptwählrad

The battery grip has the obvious disadvantage of making the camera difficult. This upsets contribute only when. Otherwise, this additional weight brings the advantage that the camera is much safer and quieter in the hand.

With the battery grip of the fully corresponds to the Canon BG-E3, the camera can be, especially for vertical shots, hold a lot better. He also has an additional shutter release button, dial and three buttons for AF point selection, AE / FE lock and key for the aperture and exposure compensation. These buttons make operating the camera for vertical shots clear.

The battery capacity can be added to hold the camera for more more than twice as many photos as a single battery. In practice, 800 are feasible up to 1000 pictures with one battery pack entirely. Finally, I change the memory card more often than the batteries :-) .

Conclusion: Those who have tried this battery grip, makes it to the camera. The added comfort and increased endurance of the camera is worth it to carry more weight, and the problem with the difficult storage in the camera case to be accepted.
