Customer Reviews
Battery grips rock! 
Since buying this I have upgraded cameras but if you are a DSLR user and use the camera in portrait mode even 25% of the time, get a battery grip. I currently own a 1D camera so it has a battery grip built into it.
I highly recommend this for the 5D.
Love it!
I can go days without charging a battery, and on multiple photo shoots. This really provides an added convenience, and I would highly recommend it.
A must have
Adds even more battery power. It seems that I need to recharge my 5D every few thousand frames if that. I feel comfortable leaving for a few days without my charger packed. It also makes the 5D look like a 1D series camera
