I assume I cannot use this Viewfinder with a Battery Grip for a Canon T2i?

I highly doubt you will be able to do that. Although I didn't try to attach it to the battery grip of my 6D, just looking at it visually I can tell the vertical bracket is not long enough to go to the bottom of the battery grip.

Nope. It screw mounts to the thread on the base of the camera. There's a little play, but not that much.

Yeah, no - when you have it all rigged up, you can't use the battery grip. I'd recommend getting an AC adapter and wearable external power source (battery pack) if you need it for extended periods of time. Otherwise, just be ready to dismantle it every hour or so to swap batteries.Neewer® ACK-E8 Replacement AC Power Adapter Supply Kit for Canon EOS Rebel T5i/700D, T4i/650D, T3i/ 600D, T2i/550D

I think you are correct. The plate that mounts to the camera has the magnetic slot on it to attach the view finder. So with the grip it wouldn't fit. Also the clarity on this finder wasn't the best. It works and was well built. Just not as clear as I would have liked. Hope this helped.

It will not work with my battery grip (3rd party/after market). It does fit the rig, but the follow focus doesn't reach the lens....

I have a canon t3i and I'd got the same battery package like u, i don't have any Cain of problem. Just try to pull it up slowly.... :)

Technically, it will fit (the actual fitting/connector is a standard camera mount) but the weight of the camera and a lens will push you right up to the limits of the product. There are ways and weights to add to expand the capability; the product is rated for cameras up to 2 pounds - your T2i camera body, without a lens, is 1.2 pounds. For occasional use, you can make this work; for professional use, you'd be better off looking for a more capable product. I have used mine with a much smaller camera and have had great results - so please don't misunderstand my previous comments as a negative review of the product.

I use it with a T3i with a power grip and a super zoom lens and it works perfectly so you shouldn't have a problem.

Be sure to check compatibility. Or ggl and ask battery grip for Canon Mark III.

I do use the viewfinder a lot but don't know, I have a spare battery in my camera bag just in case. Sorry I can't be of help.

No. I've used battery grips with 300D, 10D, 40D and now 60D Canons. All were unique and not interchangeable with each other.

Unless Canon has changed their led screen size, it will work great. I use it on a t2i. Great value for the money.

Hi Guy-I have a Cannon Rebel T3 and it fits fine. I am not sure about a T2i. I did find that the bulk of the lens caused a shadow on the floor at the bottom of the photo when I used the built-in flash on the camera. I ended up buying a Speedlite 460 EX Flash and the shadow issue is solved.

Yes! I use it on my T2i with the same flash and it works fine. There is no change to the hotshoe on the T3i.

I have shot full and cropped sensor cameras. My son is a professional photographer and we both think it should work on many of the battery grip kits because the straps on the top and bottom of the grip are adjustable. Will this grip be challenged if you are using a larger format camera and a battery grip kit, like that on a Canon 5DmkIII? Possibly, but I believe the straps would allow adequate room for adjustment.

Yes, but you'll need to take your hand out of the strap if you want to use the shutter on the vertical grip. I just keep my hand strapped in and use the camera's shutter button when I'm out and about and using this strap. I use the grip for the extra battery and only use the grip's shutter when I'm shooting indoors or using my BlackRapid strap for security.

No :/ you would have to get new side handles. Doesn't fit a t3i with battery grip... If that helps with the sizing. Only fits without the grip

The pack includes a new designed strap (like Canon strap, but still narrower, only about 4CM), there's no AA battery adapter. If you buy an addditonal grip. that will be included, but still not work without that grip.

You need to search for the model which list out your camera. The issue with these kind of viewfinder are: 1. You cannot adjust it to fit other DSLR. 2. Cannot use it with battery grip. 3. Cannot have it with quick release base (hard to hold firm on DSLR). The GGS Swivi HD DSLR LCD Universal Foldable Viewfinder is more expensive however; It can be adjust to any LCD screen. So you are better look for a Universal viewfinder. It still has issue with battery grip though

Yes. I purchased an off brand battery grip for one of my cameras. The grip itself feels very light and plasticy but having two batteries there makes a huge difference in how many shots I get in one day. If you care about the name, buy a Nikon grip. If you don't care about the name, start reading reviews until you find one you like.
