The Canon BG-E5 Battery Grip has been launched alongside the Canon EOS 450D. Slotting into the battery bay, it is able to take 6 AA batteries or two of the 450D's new LP-E5 batteries. It provides a shutter button and control dial along with AE/FE Lock, exposure compensation and AF point selection buttons in a vertical orientation. The Canon BG-E5 offers creative flexibility by providing a stable grip for vertical as well as horizontal positions.

Conclusion: Great for price and small hands too.
Review: My grip isn't as large as most folks so I thought it important to give a perspective for folks with small hands. This grip adds a bit of weight to the camera but is not too heavy. The trade for more shooting time is worth it. I had to upgrade my head to compensate for the weight. Vertical shots are much easier with the placement of the second button.
It's great that you can use one battery with it. I added a second battery also increasing weight, but again doubling my available shooting time.
Overall, a great addition. I needed it to shoot longer in the field. I'll be away from a power source for a few days.

Conclusion: Great Product!
Review: Great addition to the XSI! It balances the camera nicely, adds the ability to use AA batteries or Canon rechargeables.

Conclusion: Battery Grip a good idea
Review: I purchased the BG-E5 for a cruise to Alaska. Wanted to make sure that I never ran out of battery power. Using two LP-E5 batteries I never lost power, even after taking more than 700 photos (no flash) in one day. Having the AA battery holder as a backup made me feel confident that I would miss nothing.
Easy to use, makes the camera feel bigger, the side controls are a great addition.
Only con is the weight, but it is not really that bad.

Conclusion: Grey Market being sold here on Amazon - UPDATE
Review: Great product and really transforms your xsi into a great camera. Here's the scoop on the seller Amazon is using. A Brooklyn, NY-based outfit that almost exclusively sells "Grey Market" FOREIGN goods WITHOUT U.S. warranties! There was NO CANON USA PAPERWORK in this grip package - only foreign-listed cards. That means if you need warranty work on this device, Canon USA WILL NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY BECAUSE TECHNICALLY THIS IS NOT A CANON USA PRODUCT. I wish the folks at Amazon, all good people really, weren't so busy that they couldn't have taken the time to research this. I'm disappointed and although I will keep this grip ( I have no choice I need it now for two gigs upcoming this weekend) you can be sure I will be more watchful here on Amazon.com. Amazon customers need to watch out for ANYTHING sold by the above seller and INQUIRE UP FRONT as to the whether it is a Canon USA Product or a Canon Grey Market import from overseas. DISAPPOINTED IN AMAZON! ***UPDATE**** 8/26/08 It appears now that Amazon is selling this grip directly. I do not know if it is the Grey Market version but I would e-mail them to check.
