I have been looking at different battery grips for my 50d.

i have seen the canon version and other ones on ebay etc.

do the different types offer any more functions at all? i have seen some that have a lcd on the back as well.

any info welcome

thanks

to be honest the more options = the more things to go wrong and with Chines/japanese support its gonig to be a night mare getting them fixed.

I just went with a 3rd party Phottix grip of ebay. No extra functions. Has worked fine. Got the original grip on the 5DII and to be honest asthetically there isn't muh in it.
 
the official canon ones seem to have a nasty nack of getting stuck on the camera when the plastic gears break..


i remember reading something like this as well, but couldnt remember 100%

do the cheap ones come with metal gears?
