The battery grip absolutely served its purpose, but is a giant and that's the reason why I have sent him back. I switched from a Nikon D700 to the Canon and I had at the Nikon and even then on my Canon A-1 always have a battery grip. I Love Battery Grips, because I like the happy and I think that cameras are simply right. The Nikon looks great with handle and fits perfectly. The A-1 was a real eye-catcher and then evaluated the Cam on. I expected that also for my beloved Eos 6D and ordered the handle without twitching and grumbling and he was promptly there. Unwrapped, happy and turn screwed and then came the question mark. The handle is monstrous and makes the Eos 6D to exaggerated heavy camera with underbody armor. The handle is untenrum so extremely massive, that I no longer regard as successful the concept of the handle. My hand is frankly too small for this handle. 6D Pity about the handle, but with the Eos I have a camera that has an extremely durable battery that is easy, which is my professional Anprüchen justice and in itself is consistent. The handle is not a value to me and I'm happy that I decided against the additional weight. Vertical shooting I can not get well without handle back and since the second battery anyway included here is and you have to buy to hedge anyway, which is then also no mathematical decision. The handle is as mentioned otherwise totally good, does what he is and is working properly, but as I said, I find full-frame in miniature pretty cool and then give better from the money saved for lenses.
