The attached photos were shot using a Sigma 100-400mm Contemporary, all hand held. I shot several images this way...spent over an hour outside capturing many wildlife shots.
Double the battery life is obviously a great thing, but the added heft, ergonomic comfort and balance...that's what makes it worth the $$ for me.

The best thing about it is that that it extends your camera battery time by double, using 2 Canon OEM batteries that you buy separately. A nice feature is that you don't have to have 2 batteries in it for it to work. It will work with only one...and the batteries do not have to have equal charges! I recommend the Canon batteries because they hold a charge longer than the off brands and you camera will not recognize the generics and won't tell you how much time you have left on them. Also when you insert the offbrand batteries the camera will tell you that if you proceed, you will void your warranty.
With this grip, using the camera at almost any angle feel very natural and all the controls are in easy reach. Also, with the ability to run of off either one or two batteries it allows you to not worry as much about running out of power any time soon. I was surprised that the new grips like this one no longer allowed the use of AA batteries anymore. My old XSi grip had an extra tray that could take (4) AAs. It was handy if you were in a situation where you needed a bit more power but had no rechargeables available.
I did notice that this grip seems a bit bigger in the hand than my old XSi, and it has a slightly more "plastic" feel to it, but that's most likely just the different texture as I've noticed it on the T6i camera body as well.
To me, this really completes the camera and I just can't see using one without it!

Mit originalen Akkus wird der Ladezustand angezeigt.
Was mir auch sehr gut gefällt ist eine extra Halterung für den Akkufachdeckel, welcher entfernt werden muss.
Über den Preis allerdings lässt sich durchaus streiten.
