Battery Grip
The Canon BG-E8 Battery Grip to me seems to be long lasting longer than the original Canon battery even when in video mode. I really like how it combines with the Canon T5i and also how it grips by holding the camera straight or to the side.

Excellent quality
Great product.
Works as advertised. I like it because it fits my hand - it makes it easier to handle my T5i.
STURDY, COMFORTABLE, AND EFFICIENT.
Great product! I have used other grips but this one has been nothing but reliable, while allowing me to hang the bulb open longer.
Great product
I'm glad I spent a little more and went with the Canon version. Love the feel and quality. Great grip for my T3i.
Perfect fit for my need.
This original Canon Battery Grip fits perfectly my eos 550d (T2i). It is made of strong material, seems like the body of camera and no at all as a seperate part. I ordered this to give my camera longer hrs of video shoot and it fulfilled the purpose. With two canon batteries into this I was able to shoot 4.5 hrs of video recording with mic connected to this. Although I had to pay additional import duty on this, yet this was worth every penny.
Great grip, works like a charm
I have no problems with this grip whatsoever. I had previously purchased an aftermarket grip for another camera and had to return it for electronic difficulties. The genuine camera manufacturer grip ( despite its increased cost ) is definitely worth it for me.
