Is it possible to use the older 5D mark II BG-E6 battery grip on the 5D mark III?

I would doubt it very much, specially as they are bringing out the BG-E11 for it at the end of the month. I know they use the same battery but I think the 5D3 is bigger than the 5D2 so the screw point probably wouldn't be in the right place.

yeah I would doubt it as well, especially with the premium price they've attached to the new grip. If the e6 fit everyone would use that and just say the hell with the joystick
