Canon BG-E21 Battery Grip for EOS 6D Mark II

The Canon 2130C001 is a battery grip created specifically for the EOS 6D Mark II. It attaches securely to the base of the camera and delivers two clear advantages: far longer shooting sessions and steadier control, especially when the camera is turned for vertical framing.

Inside the grip there is room for two LP-E6 or LP-E6N battery packs, so you can keep the viewfinder active and the video rolling for roughly twice as long as a single battery allows. This extra capacity is a relief during destination weddings, wilderness treks, overnight timelapses, or any job where swapping batteries would interrupt the moment.

The grip also provides a secondary shutter release and main command dial positioned for portrait orientation. When you pivot the camera 90 degrees, your index finger still finds the shutter button naturally, and the body feels balanced rather than top-heavy. Portrait photographers, event shooters, and anyone who spends long hours working handheld will notice the difference right away.

A construction that resists dust and water matches the weather sealing of the 6D Mark II, giving you confidence when light rain starts to fall or when wind kicks up sand on location. The surface texture and contours mirror the camera’s own design, so the combination feels like a single, integrated piece of equipment.

An alignment pin hole on the bottom plate lets you lock the camera to select video heads or quick release plates. This small feature improves stability for sliders, gimbals, or tripod work where precise alignment matters.

For photographers and videographers who need dependable power and comfortable handling in the field, the BG-E21 is a straightforward upgrade that keeps the focus on capturing the shot, not on managing batteries.
