    5 out of 5 stars this grip rocks !.......2007-11-07

    So I read all the reviews, still ordered this unit, and I had just got my 40d ordered but it took 2 weeks for amazon to ship ( the prime membership isn't for me, I canceled it) as amazon ships to so cal two day via ups ground anyhow, so back to the grip, had a d60 for 5yrs, with canon grip ( had money then) it worked great, now my 40d with this grip has rocked !!! Can you say we just went to Havasu lake and the opteka batteries lasted 3 whole days with about 400 shots no problems, shot mostly my canon 70-200mm 2.8L and this grip is the only non canon product I have ever bought with exception of a china battery for my canon and that battery still rocks 3yrs later, canon batteries suck.. so luv the grip and the issues you all are having I have NOT had, maybe the unit I got is from another run, b4 or after not sure.. but my grip came Oct, so with the 2 batteries at the price you can't go wrong ! I luv my set up ! u can see some picts I shot with this at renebruce.com check the pet picts, most all with the 40D and always with this grip, I also use the *button for focusing on the grip and it has not failed once in 4 weeks ! Keeping my fingers crossed ! Nice product as far as my thoughts, 5 star for sure nice work !

    4 out of 5 stars It's a grip.......2007-10-29

    When I first got this grip it was intended for my 30D which was in the shop getting cleaned. I tested it on my 40D and it worked fine. After I got my 30D back - it did not work on the 30D, but DID work on my 40D still. I tried to contact the seller whom my emails went unanswered too - to see about a return or replacement. My negative opinion of them does not reflect on this items star rating.

    I give this product a 4 since it did not work on the 30D right away - I did eventually get it to work after cleaning the contacts on the grip really well and trying it numerous times. For whatever reason - it works fine now. Had it worked as intended right out of the box - it would have been given 5 stars since the value is great. I do perfer the Canon grip's method of loading the batteries from the back instead of on the side - but it all works just the same in the end.

    1 out of 5 stars opteka battery pack grip.......2007-10-24

    I should have spent the extra money and bought the canon grip - I have had nothing but problems with this product, and talking to other photogs who use this product...very common very big problem

    1 out of 5 stars Total Garbage, Worthless piece of junk, DO NOT BUY!!!.......2007-10-17

    Like many people who reviewed this grip, I too wanted to save money and go with the cheaper brand. But like always you wind up paying more at the end then if you would of went with Canon's original grip. My main problem with this grip is that ON/OFF switch doesn't work at all, and so the grip is useless! I tried many things but no solution in sight. So for now I just left it as additional battery pack.

    My advice: stay away from 47th STREET PHOTO and 3rd party battery grips! Spend little bit more now and you will enjoy your product for many years to come.

    1 out of 5 stars Overpriced compared to the real thing.......2007-10-12

    This is currently for sale at $298.40 - are they on crack?
    The real Canon grip is selling for $179 add a pair of real canon bp511 batteries and the Canon total comes to $277.93

    Also, the description here says "includes 2 Power 2000 BP-511 1500 mAh Batteries!"
    I am pretty sure that adds up to 3000 mAh not the 3400 claimed in the item title.

    For the quality of the batteries and the product itself, this is worth maybe $160 - no more.

    4 out of 5 stars As Good As the Canon .......2007-11-12

    The main difference between the Canon grip and this grip is quality control. You might get one or two that doesn't have a real good fit. The first one I got would lose contact when held by the grip with my 70-200 2.8L. This caused the camera to lose power. Frankly I didn't believe that others were not that way but I sent it back and got another and sure enough the second one works fine. There are some differences in the way that the batteries are held and inserted but the buttons feel the same as the Canon, kind of cheap, and when it's a good copy and all attached it feels just like the Canon. Not sure why but it does seem like I go through more batteries now so it's probably worth buying extra batteries.

    I got this from 47th street photo though Amazon and while they don't make you feel very taken care of they do eventually come through.

      5 out of 5 stars Great Tool!.......2007-11-26

      Very useful tool for sports photography and more. Just make sure that you check that it's screwed on tightly. If not, the camera won't work properly and leave you wondering 'What the heck!?' I'd recommend this.

      1 out of 5 stars grip for 30d.......2007-11-25

      does not fit snugly onto camera. Seems loose.
      only one locking screw top attach to the camera
      feels like its going to fall off

      5 out of 5 stars baterry grip for Canon 30d.......2007-10-18

      I bought this baterry grip in Sep. 07.It's really worth every penny.Extend the shooting time (all day).Shooting in vertical mode.Highly recommend for all Canon 20d,30d and 40d .Thumbs up

      5 out of 5 stars Fits the new 40D perfectly.......2007-09-25

      As the 3 year owner of a BGE1 grip for the original Digital Rebel (300D) - it would have been a show stopper in the purchase the new (Sept 2007) Canon 40D camera - unless a Canon Battery Grip for the 40D was available at the time of sale. The specs show the BG-E2 would work with the 40D and IT DOES! I ordered this camera body with the 28-135mm lens that has an Image Stabilization feature. Added to this is Canon's new 3" LCD viewer on the 40D and a two battery rig was a necessity.

      I'm a semi-pro portrait photographer using a flash bracket to elevate my speedlight above the lens. The bracket attaches at the tripod screw - blocking standard battery access hatch on the baseplate of the camera - making the grip a must have for instant battery access during my photoshoots.

      Rather than purchasing the very expensive Canon batteries - I went to the Amazon aftermarket and purchased perfectly functioning batteries from Sterlingtek - rated with 25% more power (2000maH) than Canon's offerings at a VERY VERY reasonable price.

      Fit and finish on the BG-E2 compliments my new beautiful 40D almost perfectly. No problems with fit to the camera body or operations in the first 14 days of use - including a major shooting event where almost 600 photos were recorded.

      As a final bonus - I purchased a Canon hand strap that allows me precise control of this VERY heavy rig. You cannot use this side strap without a BG anchor point.

      As a past Battery Grip (BGE1) user - it was a "no brainer" to again purchase this BG-E2 device that fits the 40D. Additionally a 6AA battery caddy (included at no charge) allows for even more power backup should an unexpected power event occur.

      The added weight of the grip and batteries to the metal camera bodied 40D with the heavy 28-135mm IS or 85mm f1.8 lens IS A HANDFULL. It takes much getting used to (this is the only negative I can report to date - time to go back to the gym). Canon's best lenses are glass heavy and the side hand strap was the camera control answer for me when not on the flash bracket.

      If you're not shooting with an AC camera power /source adaptor in the studio this product is indispensable.

      5 out of 5 stars truly worth it .......2007-09-25

      I was cautious when i first considered to buying this product but after receiving it i love it. the grip fits perfectly i don't know what other people are talking about when they say it's loose or doesn' fit right mine is perfect. it's a must have for any one who uses long lenses or loves to shoot portraits. the only down side to this accessory is the added weight it gives the camera but i think its worth it.

          Product Description

          The Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM is a large aperture lens that provides a standard angle most similar to the human eye. The 30mm focal length translates to approximately 50mm in 35mm format. A glass mold aspherical lens element at the rear group of the lens reduces color aberration and provides high-quality image results. From 15.7" (40 cm) minimum focusing distance to infinity, this lens creates very sharp images with high contrast, and can perform superbly in a great range of applications, including snapshots, portraiture, indoor shooting and landscape photography. DC lenses are exclusively designed for digital SLR cameras. The image circle (rear of lens) is made to match the smaller dimensions used for the image sensor on digital cameras. As a result these lenses are also more compact and lightweight, and are better matched to digital SLR cameras. Enjoy all the benefits of the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM Autofocus Lens for your Canon EOS 30D or 20D SLR camera, plus you get all of the following brand new items: All Manufactures Supplied Accessories, Opteka Battery Pack Grip & 2 BP-511 Batteries (3400 mAh Total), Opteka High Definition² 3 Piece Filter Kit - Ultra-Violet, Polarizing and Fluorescent Filters, Sigma Micro-Fiber Lens Cleaning Cloth Keychain, and an Opteka Professional Tabletop Tripod.

            5 out of 5 stars A necessary accessory.......2007-10-22

            The battery grip is a very necessary add-on for the 40D (or any other Canon camera which it will fit). It turns out to be even better than described, as it facilitates vertical format with its extra trigger and controls, and of course, having two batteries extends the time between recharging or battery replacement. It even accepts AA batteries in case of an emergency (being somewhere without power for your charger). It adds a little weight, but does not make the camera harder to handle. Highly recommended.

The new model replaces the original BG-E2 grip and is compatible with the EOS 20D, 30D and 40D models.
