Henry's in Canada is celebrating it's 100year anniversary - they are apparently selling the Canon BG-E2N, battery and Tamrac bag for $149 CAN. The grip alone lists for $379 right now!

I have been told all authentic Canon, not 3rd party.

I wasn't going to get a grip, but maybe I should "get a grip" already!!

:)


I have a photographic memory, just wish I'd remember to take the lens cap off more often! :oops:

I was tempted to buy two - keep the batteries and grip, sell the bags and one grip - would probably make my most of my $$ back!!! :)

They used to have a US dollar and CAN $ sites - they charge you and credit card companies figure out exchange rate...

Whenever it's processed by CC company - usually same or next day (that's what I found when I order stuff from the US at least)

Dunno, I'm not a Henry's employee :)
If that's what they charge, you save an extra $3 I guess.
They've been in business for 100 years now - not a bad track record.
