 Opteka battery Grip for Canon Rebel XS August 31, 2010
Davey D
Love, love, love this. This battery grip works fantastic! I haven't compared it side by side to a "Canon" battery grip but I don't see how the Canon could be any better. It has the shutter button as well as the other control buttons that are on the camera so there is no need to flip the camera to use them. The construction is very solid and feels good in the hand. The extra battery gives you so much more use time it's silly. I am charging my batteries much less than before. This grip also gives my Canon Rebel XS a much better feel, at least for me. It comes with two batteries so I now always have one extra charged battery on hand just in case. Haven't had to use it though.
This product is much cheaper than the Canon model and I don't see any reason to spend the extra money just so it says "Canon" on it. I highly recommend this item to anyone looking for a battery grip.
A pleasant surprise August 28, 2010

I am quite pleased. The unit works perfectly and I particularly like the feel of the grip when I use it for vertical shots.
A must-have for serious shooters August 26, 2010

I've owned my DSLR (Canon 1000D) for just over a year now, and finally added this to my kit. This is one of the best accessory purchases for my camera that I have made. I've noticed not only an improved grip in portrait shooting, but landscape as well. It is much easier overall to hold the camera steady with this grip attached. The duplicated controls are perfectly placed to make portrait shooting so much easier. The extra batteries are a bonus and the price is perfect.
I've only been using this for about a week, but I am so pleased with this purchase I had to take a minute to drop some props.

I bought this for my boyfriend for his camera, he seems to like it well enough :] I have no personal experience with it but i know he has raved about the battery life and how it is great for taking portraits due to the extra shutter button.
Just What I Needed August 21, 2010

This product was everything I was looking for and more. Excellent quality for an affordable price. I especially like the rubber-like gripping material. It makes it a little better for holding without the fear of losing your grip. The batteries are extra long lasting. I have done numerous photo shoots and still haven't yet needed to recharge. I highly recommend this product.
