Battery Grip Kit for Canon EOS R5 R6 II - Includes 2 LP-E6NH

In this review of the BM Premium Battery Grip Kit for Canon EOS R5, EOS R6, EOS R5C and EOS R6 II, the bottom line is straightforward: photographers who need extended shoot time and improved handling for vertical work will find the biggest benefit. The kit combines a replacement BG-R10 style vertical grip with two LP-E6NH batteries and a charger, effectively doubling available power and adding a comfortable secondary shutter and control layout for portrait shooting. It is best for outdoor shooters and event photographers who want longer runtime without frequent battery swaps.

Key Features

• Compatibility: Works with Canon EOS R5, EOS R6, EOS R5C and EOS R6 II so users with any of these bodies get extra power and controls built to fit their camera.
• Extended runtime: Accepts up to two LP-E6NH battery packs to significantly increase shooting time for long sessions or remote work.
• Vertical shooting controls: The grip provides a dedicated shutter, main dial and quick control for comfortable and efficient portrait-orientation shooting.
• Improved handling: Rubber-coated shell and added weight improve hand feel, balance with telephoto lenses and help suppress hand shake.
• Tripod-ready: A standard 1/4 screw hole and positioning hole at the bottom of the grip let you mount and lock the camera securely on a tripod head for stabilized video or long exposures.

Who It's For

The kit is aimed at professionals and serious enthusiasts using Canon EOS R5, R6, R5C or R6 II who shoot long events, wildlife or outdoor sessions where battery changes are disruptive. Portrait and wedding photographers will appreciate the vertical controls for quicker composition and reduced fatigue during extended shoots.

Casual users who rarely shoot for more than a few hours, or those who prefer to travel with minimal gear, might find the extra size and weight unnecessary and should consider sticking with spare batteries alone.
