Will this work with the R6 Mark ii, without limiting it when using LP-E6NH batteries?
Asked by: Matthew
The Canon BG-R20 Battery Grip will disable the pre-capture and the high frame rate function on the new Canon EOS R5 Mark II Mirrorless Camera provide. For the Canon EOS R6 Mark II Mirrorless Camera all the camera functions remain the same when using the Canon LP-E6N Lithium-Ion Battery, the Canon LP-E6NH Lithium-Ion Battery (7.2V, 2130mAh), and the Canon LP-E6P Lithium-Ion Battery.

Can you use regular LP-E6 batteries with this?

Can you use regular LP-E6 batteries with this?
Asked by: Rick
The Canon LP-E6 battery is not compatible with the Canon BG-R20 Battery Grip. The Canon LP-E6N and Canon LP-E6NH batteries are compatible, but will have some limitations due to lack of power from those batteries ( e.g., no pre-continuous shooting or dual video + stills shooting).
