- BG sits perfectly on the camera. Nix rattles or wobbles. - The battery cover of the camera can be temporarily stored in a special storage space in the BG. - The shape is well adapted to the camera (keyword clearances) - The rubber smell something, but they do not smell like (contrary to my first expectation) and is visually the Kameragummierung very close. Said odor has completely evaporated after three days. - The pressure of the trigger points are the camera very similar, maybe a little "tighter". The screening of the electoral wheel is not quite as tough as in the camera and thus to my mind pleasant at BG. - The camera has been (for the purpose of long-term and panorama assist) screwed together with BG on a tripod. Again, no negative anomalies. - Holds the key top. Have a fingernail it rumgeschrubbt. Nothing happens except that my fingernail is now shorter. - Batteries not heat up while charging hardly up. - Capacity of the batteries can not yet assess because batteries until their full capacity after 4 - 5 charge-discharge cycles (according to instruction). - After about 400 pictures the battery indicator is in any case still in "full";) - Handiness increases enormously with BG. Subjective weight gain of the camera is of course noticeable but not annoying. I am caught in trying to find the fly in the ointment in the BG. Really successful I was not there and that's why I can not help but to give 5 stars as the part.
UPDATE: After several charge-discharge cycles, the capacity of the battery pack has now leveled out. With a single charge I now generating about 600-650 images. This time the flash is about to 5 - 10% used. When using the individual Canon Original Battery I come up to 400 images. This means that the Phottix batteries significantly fewer bars, although the capacity of 1400 mAh indication assert something else. Well, you could denounce the now, I see because of the significant price difference between original and replica but against it. With total of over 1000 frames per photo session until the next charging ability even an enthusiastic clippers should cope with sustained fire mentality. ;)
Furthermore, it should be mentioned that after approximately 7000 trips of Baterriegriff still makes a very good figure. To date, none of the points mentioned above has changed for the worse.
(And no ... the manufacturer has not paid me for this review;))
