bg-e2n battery grip.

ok, this may have been asked already but i couldnt find anything about it.

anyway here's my question: can the camera run on just 1 battery pack in the grip or does it have to have 2?

thanks in advance! :)

I wondered the same thing but for my 450D. Bit of googling revealed that the bg-e5 for the 450D will hold just 1 battery. Just did the same for you and found that you only need 1 for the bg-e2n according to Adorama (here (http://www.adorama.com/ICABGE2N.html)).

No worries

Yes you can, I'm running just one battery in my grip

but if you run two in it you almost never have to charge it.

Thats the truth!

Unless you are using AF servo and IS a lot, you can run a camera with 2 batteries in a grip all day with virtually no downtime and not have a problem.
