Operation and Use of the Grip
1. Your camera must be turned ON for the grip to operate. When your camera is ON the grip
may be switched ON or OFF by using the Vertical Grip Operation Switch (3). Please note,
the grip will continue to supply power to your camera whether the Vertical Grip Operation
Switch is set to ON or OFF. Setting the Vertical Grip Operation Switch to OFF only disables
the operation of the grip’s camera controls to prevent accidental changes to your camera’s
settings and/or taking of photographs.
2. Use the Grip’s Shutter Button (11) to comfortably auto focus and take photographs while
holding your camera in a vertical position.
3. Use the Main Dial (12), AE lock / FE lock / Index / Reduce Button (4), AF Point Selection /
Magnify Button (5), and Aperture / Exposure Compensation Button (6) as you would on
your camera. These controls work the same as they do on your camera.
4. Use the Tripod Socket (13) to mount your grip and camera to a tripod or quick release plate.
