Have eagerly anticipating this battery grip ordered for my A7. I regret to say that I am quite disappointed. The handle does not make any solid impression in my mind. It is completely made of relatively thin plastic and the battery compartment cover has game, so he gives squeaks by as soon as one hand against it comes .... How can something like that, please be water resistant? What I was also very disturbed, the arrangement of the setting with respect to the release button. These are namely arranged differently than on the camera itself. Therefore, you have to get used only once and attacks at the beginning often into space .... but I expect that the camera feels the same in both the transverse and in Hochvormat, at least as As for the operation. The price is of course completely covered ... but that is typical Sony.
