BG-N2

BAT TERY GRIP

Designed For The Nikon D80

And D90 Cameras

USER’S MANUAL

Introduction

Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations on

your new BG-N2 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-N2 is compatible with the Nikon D80

and D90 DSLR cameras. Up to (2) Nikon EN-EL3e

rechargeable batteries may be used to increase your

shooting time, or six AA batteries (alkaline, Ni-MH,

lithium, or nickel-manganese) for added convenience.

The BG-N2 is equipped with an alternate shutter-

release button, an AE-L/AF-L button, and main and

sub-command dials for shooting in a vertical orientation.

Please read through this entire manual before

using the BG-N2 battery grip.

Precautions

1. The BG-N2 should only be used with compatible

devices specified in this manual.

2. Only use with batteries and battery holders

recommended in this manual. The BG-N2 can

not be used with Nikon EN-EL3a/EN-EL3 Li-ion

batteries or other battery holders.

3. Cover the power terminals with the contact

cap when the BG-N2 is not in use. This prevents

electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching

the power terminals.

4. When the AA battery holder is removed from the

BG-N2, 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. The BG-N2 does not have a power switch. Instead,

use the camera power switch to turn the power

on or off.

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.
