USER’S MANUAL
BG-N22
BAT TERY GRIP
Designed for the
Nikon Z 6II and Z 7II
Mirrorless Cameras

Thank you
for choosing Vello
The Vello BG-N22 battery grip offers extended shooting
time and comfort when shooting in a vertical (portrait)
orientation. The grip is compatible with the Nikon Z 6II
and Z 7II mirrorless cameras, and it accepts up to two
Nikon EN-EL15c/EN-EL15b rechargeable batteries.
You can charge the batteries inside the grip without
removing them, and hot swap a battery while shooting
video. The BG-N22 offers an alternate shutter release,
multi-selector, and additional buttons, making the grip
ideal for shooting in portrait mode. The convenient
control lock switch disables all the controls, preventing
unwanted exposures.
Please read through this entire manual
before using the BG-N22 battery grip.
