Key Features
- For X-T2 Camera
- Holds 1 or 2 NP-W126 Batteries
- Improves Camera Performance
- Extended Grip for Vertical Composition
Bring out the full potential of your X-T2 mirrorless camera with the VPB-XT2 Vertical Power Booster Grip from FUJIFILM. Able to hold one or two additional NP-W126 series batteries in addition to the one already in the camera, this grip will dramatically improve shooting time. The added power also enables multiple boost settings that improve continuous shooting speed, autofocus, and more. For more standard battery grip functionality, it is equipped with a shutter release button for more comfortable vertical composition and it has dual command dials and a focus point joystick for control in multiple positions. Other controls include AE-L, AF-L, Q, and Fn buttons. Additionally, video shooters will gain a 3.5mm headphone jack for monitoring sound and there is a 1/4"-20 tripod thread on the base.

Will this work with the new XT-4?
Will this work with the new XT-4?
The vertical power booster for the Fuji XT-2 and XT-4 BOTH have different model numbers so that would tell me the XT-2 power booster does not work on a newer camera the XT-4. It makes sense to me that they are not compatible.

question
Using the supplied AC adapter, how can we know that both of (or the) batterie(s) are fully charged ? Is there a kind of a lamp or is it only a matter of charging time ?
There is an indicator that shows that the batteries are fully charged

question
Can this grip use the newer NP-W126S batteries or just the older NP-W126 batteries?
It works well with older battery. However camera should have the upgraded battery. There is a slight speed difference with the in camera model as well as heat dispersion.

question
Does the Grip come with two batteries ?
The grip does not include batteries, however, it does have battery-charging functionality. Using the AC adapter supplied (AC-9VS), you can fully charge two batteries at the same time in approx. 2 hours.

question
Does it further improve auto focus performance? or is it the same as in-camera boost mode?
No, Sorry, the previous two answers are not correct. There are several very significant differences when you have the VPB attached. First, max frame is only 8 FPS without it, and with it you can get 11 or 14 FPS. Next, the EVF refresh rate goes up to 60fps without VPB, but jumps to 100 FPS when you use VPB. Also, the shutter release lag drops a bit, and VF blackout drops a bit as well, as does actual AF circuitry acquisition time (.06 sec versus .08). If you're doing action these are very noticeable changes.
