grip questions
can you mix and match batteries for the battery grips?
i have a canon and a generic 511 battery for my 40D zeikos grip. the mAh rating for both is a bit different, but that's about it. |

Re: grip questions
I've done it on my 40D with a bg-e2 grip with no problems at all.

Re: grip questions
Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it. I've mixed an OEM Canon BP511 with SterlingTek brand off and on with no problems at all on the BG-E2. The mAh ratings on those are different as well.

Re: grip questions
I've used Optekas and Canon OEMs in my T1i.

Re: grip questions
Different capacity batteries shouldn't matter either.

Re: grip questions
And you don't get the annoying "not genuine canon" battery error.
