Review on πŸ“· Canon 3086C002 BG-E22 Battery Grip - Black, Full-Size: A Powerful Accessory for Enhanced Camera Performance by John Caine

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An almost essential accessory for EOS R

I have been a professional fashion photographer for almost 40 years. I was a bit reluctant to accept a mirrorless camera as part of my kit. (One reason is Canon's new standout lenses and the fast autofocus on ALL lenses.) The EOS R is fortunately slightly larger than its competitors. The battery grip, while adding some weight, gives my hand a secure grip on the camera and also adds an almost essential vertical shutter release. The grip comes with its own charger (USB-C) which, while I don't need it, is a nice touch. The handle also balances the body well with the large lenses.

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • High price
