BG-C10 BATTERY GRIP Designed For The Canon EOS 70D SLR Camera
Introduction Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations on your new BG-C10 battery grip purchase. Enjoy the many benefits that a battery grip offers such as extended shooting time and more control and comfort when shooting in a vertical (portrait) orientation. The Vello BG-C10 is compatible with the Canon EOS 70D SLR camera. The BG-C10 accepts two Canon LPE6 rechargeable batteries. Alternatively six AA batteries (alkaline, Ni-MH, lithium, or nickel-manganese) can be used for added convenience.
2. Only use with batteries and battery holders recommended in this manual. 6. Turn the grip power off when not shooting vertically. 3. Cover the power terminals with the contact cap when the BG-C10 is not in use. This prevents electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching the power terminals. 7. The battery level may not display properly if batteries are inserted before mounting the grip. 8. Remove batteries from the grip when not in use.
