BG-C12

BATTERY GRIP

Designed for the Canon 7D

Mark II DSLR Camera

USER’S MANUAL

Introduction

Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations

on your new BG-C12 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-C12 is compatible with the Canon 7D

Mark II DSLR camera. The BG-C12 accepts two Canon

LP-E6 rechargeable batteries, or six AA batteries

(alkaline, Ni-MH, lithium, or nickel-manganese) can

be used instead for added convenience. The BG-C12

is equipped with an alternate shutter-release button,

AF area selection button, AF start button, AF point

selection, AE lock/FE lock button, multi-controller

button, multi-function button, and main dial for

shooting in a vertical position.

Please read through this entire manual before using

the BG-C12 battery grip.

Precautions

1. The BG-C12 should be used only with compatible

devices specified in this manual.

2. Use only with batteries and battery holders

recommended in this manual.

3. Cover the power terminals with the contact cap

when the BG-C12 is not in use. This prevents

electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching

the power terminals.

4. When the battery holder is removed from the

grip, remove the batteries or place the holder in

a container to prevent electrical shorts caused by

contact with other metal objects.

5. If you notice smoke, an unusual smell or

noise from the battery pack, discontinue use

immediately. Remove the batteries and take the

device to a Vello authorized reseller.

6. Set the grip’s control-lock switch to the locked

position when not shooting vertically.

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.

9. Do not attempt to disassemble.

10. Avoid water or extreme humidity and keep in a

dry and cool place.

11. Keep out of reach of children.
