Description

The Canon BG-E7 battery grip is the official Canon battery-grip for the Canon EOS 7D digital SLR and offers the user multiple power options plus vertical control. The BG-E7 will hold up to 2 Canon LP-E6 batteries to offer a greater shooting duration. As an alternative the BG-E7 grip can be used with 6 AA batteries. This not only increases shooting times but also means that the universally available AA batteries can be used in the event that your lithium ion batteries fail. The Canon BG-E7 grip also makes holding your 7D in the vertical or portrait position more comfortable. Shutter release, main dial, AF Point Selection, AF/FE Lock, Index, Aperture, Exposure Compensation Button and Reduce Button functions are all replicated on the grip, making operation of the camera more convenient when shooting in the portrait format.

  • Great Grip, No Issues Here
Everything seems to be in perfect working order on my 80D. I am very happy with this purchase. The grip is nice and solid, albeit a little heavy, but it does have two LP-E6 batteries inside and is built nicely. The grip comes with two inserts; one for 2x LP-E6(N) batteries and one for 4x AA batteries. The AA battery option is a great backup and I'm glad it comes standard with most grips. The grip has a power switch that lets you use the buttons on the grip to control the corresponding functions on camera. The buttons present are: AF-ON, AEL (asterisk symbol), 2x AF-point select/mode (box with AF point array symbol), a scroll wheel, and a shutter button. Basically the top right of your camera duplicated onto the grip. The buttons are on the bottom right, meaning portrait mode will be a counter-clockwise rotation, with the grip in your right hand. For some reason I thought I had ordered an off-brand grip (maybe because the price I paid?). That said, I was thoroughly surprised and impressed by the "knock-off" I thought it was. I further didn't immediately realize my mistake because the grip doesn't quite match that of the 80D, probably for any combination of three reasons: 1. It was made for the 70D and the 70D has different grip (unsure if true), 2. It simply is made of different or lesser materials, 3. It's a little older than my out-of-box 80D and the sheen and some gripping attributes have faded. Not worth a star but worth noting as an observation. Threading on bottom is satisfactory, and had no problem holding my 80D + battery grip + shutter release unit + 70-200 f4 IS + Flashpoint R2 transmitter (with a little hotshoe cover/level on top) in portrait mode on a ball head. I'm really not sure how stable it was or if it was stripping the threading (doesn't seem so after inspection), but I used it for about 30 minutes in that position without issue. The buttons are nice and feel good to press. All of them work perfectly for AF, magnify, AEL, and AF point selection mode. They sit higher than the 80D ones, but don't have play, at least after 4 days of use. Will update if that changes. The non-OEM batteries work perfectly fine in it and have been lasting for 4 days now without issue. If you look at the battery info in-camera, I believe using the grip's shutter button counts on one battery while the camera's counts on another. The batteries are draining at different rates (one is at 73% and the other at 64%, top LCD showing minus-1 bar; not sure if average or if taking info from one of the batteries), and I'm not sure of the exact reason. Here's what comes to mind thinking out loud (keep in mind I'm not great with electricity...like at all): 1. It's related to whether or not you're powering the grip with the OFF-ON switch, 2. It's related to actually using the buttons on the grip, 3. The camera is just draining them at different rates for no particular reason, and 4. The order of the batteries might matter (related to how it draws power? Serial vs Parallel? Unsure about that). I'm taking the latter from what I kind of know about Li-ion batteries from vaping/marrying batteries. That said, I'm going to switch slots every time I charge them (also unsure of wiring of charger) and switch the order in the insert as well. Whether or not that will matter is over my head, but I don't see it hurting the situation. Anyone with better knowledge than me can chime in I suppose. The mounting is my biggest issue, but again not a star worthy flaw. The mechanism is a large horizontal scroll wheel that spins a 1/4" screw into the 1/4"/20 thread at the bottom of the camera. Because it's a scroll wheel there is no real locking mechanism, and the option to tighten to a level of knob or other typical tightener is therefore missing. I'm not suggesting they should replace it with a knob, just stating the limitation of said mechanism. There's a slight feel of flimsiness associated with it when holding it solely by the grip (especially with a telephoto, experienced with both the lighter 55-250 IS STM and the slightly heavier 70-200 f4 IS). I don't recommend doing so just out of common sense, because if anything you'd be messing with the integrity of the screw and threading. The threading on your camera should be built well, but it's also a part of your camera you can't easily replace. That little play it has really snaps you out of the fantasy of holding a 1DX Mark II (if the hundred other reasons don't do it first). All in all, I'm very happy with my purchase. It makes me feel like I'm a professional photographer, especially when paired with L glass. Of course, if another photographer were to see you, it'd be obvious what it is. Either way, you'll probably get some attention with such a big setup. I whipped it out yesterday to shoot a talent show at an afterschool program and the kids were paying more attention the "huge camera" than the performance. +1 for my ego. *Some shots of the grip mounted on the 80D shot on my iPhone 7 Plus. ... show more

  • Works well with Canon 70D
Sure there are cheap knock offs, but this one looks the best with the camera (same plastic, texture, and color tone), and mates well with the main camera body in regards to bulk and. I was able to achieve very long durations for outdoor time lapse photography where very long battery life is key. The battery grip is also compatible with the corded A/C power adapter for indoor studio work. The camera will display information about both battery cells on the LCD menu, such as power cycles, and power levels. I especially enjoy the extra shutter release button, and focus select buttons in portrait orientation. There is an on/off toggle button to enable those extra buttons should you not want them enabled entirely. Finally there is an extra battery cady/cartridge for AA batteries, which unfortunately causes the entire camera grip to be a bit more bulky if it only supported the Canon Lithium/ion rechargeable batteries. Arguably the slight increase in bulk is a fair exchange for the capability of using AA batteries in emergencies, but I would rather have prefered more compactness. In all fairness the bulkiness is not extreme and actually makes the grip hold well and feels good to grip, and I imagine enhances the stability when holding. The only negative aspect of this grip is the price compared to the cheap knock offs. For me the notion of having Canon accessories is worth the price, but deep down I do not appreciate Canon for exploiting this tendency in consumers, generally speaking Canon accessories are high priced. ... show more

  • Stick with the Canon brand, but save some $$$ and buy "used"
I personally love battery grips for these reasons: * The grip holds two batteries, so my shooting time is effectively doubled * I can more comfortably hold the camera--my little finger no longer dangles down below the camera * I can more easily shoot vertically using the shutter button on the grip So when I recently purchased my Canon 80D, getting this grip was a no-brainer. It's made by Canon, attaches perfectly to the camera, and has the same feel to it as the camera itself. It has additional buttons, and a control wheel for easy adjustments while shooting vertically. It's got a spot to store the battery door from the camera, and an on/off switch in case I don't want to accidentally take a shot with the shutter button on the grip. The only drawback to this thing is the price. I've used off brand battery grips in the past and didn't have any issues--but the reviews I read made it sound like a gamble to go that route. So I compromised, and bought a "used", Canon grip, and saved a few bucks. The grip I received looks and feels brand new--still in the original box, with paperwork. I'm happy. If you're struggling between 'name brand' vs. 'off brand'--consider going a third route and buy a used 'name brand' item. Personally, I wouldn't consider using a DSLR without a battery grip--and the quality of the Canon grip won't disappoint. If you're in the market for a quality battery grip for your Canon 80D, I recommend BG-E14--you'll be happy you got it. . Canon Battery Grip for EOS 70D Digital SLR Camera ... show more

  • This is worth it!
I was hesitant to buy this given the price but not only does it make the camera last longer by using two batteries, it makes the overall handling and usability of the camera better. I have larger hands and holding the camera in either position now is a lot easier. Portrait pictures are so much easier to take with the controls mounted on the grip itself. This integrates into the camera perfectly and the finish of the plastic matches the canon body. This is worth buying because it's a quality OEM product. ... show more
