Re: 100 D Battery
I like the 100D because it's small, adding a battery grip would just make it bigger and lose the advantage. Unless you feel it's too small for your hands, I'd get spare batteries, not Canon but compatibles at a fraction of the price.EOS 6D, 6D Mk II, 80D, 70D, 100D, 200D, M50, M100. Canon 10-18, 18 - 55, 55 - 250 IS STM lenses, Canon 16 - 35 mm F4L, 35 mm EF-S macro, 50 mm F1.8 STM, 60 mm EF-S macro, MPE-65 macro, 85 mm F1.8, 200 mm F2.8 L II, M 15 - 45 mm, M 22mm F2, M 32mm F1.4.

Re: 100 D Battery
Canon don't make a battery grip for the 100D as far as I am aware.

Re: 100 D Battery
You can buy a Third party grip off amazon. If it was me, I`d get a spare battery.Last edited by Dave61; 13-12-2016, 21:36.

Re: 100 D Battery
Thanks for your thoughts yes there is a third party grip but does seem to defeat the object of a small camera think I will go for the spare battery option .100d 18-55 EFS IS STM 55-250 EFS IS STM 75-300 EF111 to finish first first you have to finishComment

Re: 100 D Battery
I have never yet depleted a full battery in a single day's shooting, so unless you have particularly heavy power requirements or you want the added size and weight anyway, I think a spare battery in your bag makes more sense than a gripCanon EOS 7D

Re: 100 D Battery
Because the 100d wasn't designed to have one, any after market grips need to workaround not having a proper power connector. A horrible kludge, as Nat says. Your second battery decision is much tidier.Originally posted by IOM 53 View PostEOS 7D mk II, Sigma 150-660C, Canon 17-85 EF-S, Tamron 10-24 and a wife who shares my obsession.Comment
