This morning I was trying to take a "bracketed" photo and my 7D would shoe a err 30 which is the shutter error. Tonight I took the grip off installed a battery and took severe shots and no err 30. Could the grip be sending this error code or not.

rrblint Listen! .... do you smell something?  More info | Yep, it could be caused by the grip, particularly if it's an after-market model. What kind is it? Mark

rrblint Listen! .... do you smell something? More info | It still could be causing the problem. Try it without the grip for a while and see if the error returns. Then try cleaning the contacts on the grip with a small amount of rubbing alcohol and a clean cloth. While you're at it, you may as well clean the contacts on the camera too. Hopefully that will clear up the problem. Mark

Mar 21, 2014 14:36 | #10 Rick you didn't say if it was a OEM Canon grip, but I have to say I have had little to no luck with 3rd party groups with my Canon equipment. I tried them with my 5D, 7D and my 5d Mk III. I just sucked it up and get the one from Canon. Ricky L. Jones
