Opteka Battery Pack Grip for Canon EOS 20D & 30D
By C. Bradley
The grip exceeded my expectations. I stuck it on and have not taken it off. Great for portraits, and extended battery life.

I have my grip from Opteka for 4 months. This grip works and feels great. Camera sits on grip very well (I have Canon 30D), I can't tell the difference between this one and Canon BG E2 (I have Canon brand at work). Some people found the side loading of batteries as the disadvantage, contrary it suits me well. I use hand strip with this grip and loading batteries on the side seems to be natural thing to do. Vertical shutter release does feel different, however I think it is a small price to pay, considering the price difference. And yes, this grip doesn't have flashy sign "Canon" on the base.

Not as good as the Canon Brand.
By Rudjim
I read the product description (says it uses the same mold as the factory) and bought the product only to send it back. I found it functions the same but does not place the batteries in the same area. The batteries are placed into the side of the battery Grip. There is only one plastic door latch that holds the batteries in place.I felt it was to flimsy (for the weight of the batteries) and not the same as the canon model. The canon Grip has two catches that hold the each rechargeable battery and the door latch in the back of the grip. The Canon Grip feels more durable is more robust. The batteries are better secured by the extra latches compared to opteka's single plastic battery door.
