Canon BG-E1 Battery Grip Back to Canon BG-E1 Battery Grip The Canon BG-E1 Vertical Battery Grip is an accessory for the Canon EOS Digital Rebel SLR camera. It serves two purposes: 1) it allows two batteries to be installed for extended shooting sessions; 2) it provides a vertical shutter release.

Some people feels that there is a third purpose, which is to make the Digital Rebel much bigger for better handling or just pure ego. For me, the only purpose it serves is to provide the vertical shutter release. That is why sometimes I call it a vertical shutter grip, rather than vertical battery grip. The other two purposes are side effects to me, not features.

Why are they side effects? Because being able to carry two batteries just introduces more weight into the system. And making the camera bigger defies the original intent of creating the smallest digital SLR at the time. Nevertheless, I am extremely pleased that I now own the BG-E1 grip for the purpose I believe every camera should provide. Now I can use the Digital Rebel the way cameras are meant to be used--shutter release to the top right corner.

No more monkey dances when I shoot vertical shots. Although I had consider the size factor a side effect earlier, I do have to make the point that if you use primarily big lenses, then the BG-E1 grip will feel right at home on your camera. On the other hand, if you are still using the 18-55mm EF-S lens or the 50mm f/1.8 lens, then it will feel like you have enlarged the Digital Rebel tremendously. This has the same effect on my D30 with the BG-ED3. Luckily for me, most of my lenses are the same size or much bigger than the Digital Rebel. So the BG-E1 battery grip actually help match the Digital Rebel to the large lenses (it just feels kinda weird seeing the small Digital Rebel mounted to the end of my Canon EF 300mm f/4 L lens).
