Does this have a button that allows me to shoot pictures on the grip, also does it have the cord that goes into your camera that allows that feature?

Yes it does. It included instructions on how to use that button to shoot vertical pics. This is the second one I've purchased as the first one have a spin latch that got broken as I was descending Stone Mountain in Georgia. IT DOES NOT HAVE A CORD, but it will accommodate 2 batteries and I have yet to go on a shoot and exhaust my power supply.

It has a button on the side of the grip but I'm not sure what its purpose is.. It did not come with a cord and I don't see how to put a cord on the grip when there's no slot for it. No clear instructions came with it..

No pause button, but you can take still pictures while shooting video, which is a huge thing for me. So now I don't have to carry around a camera AND camcorder!!

No it doesn't. Love the camera and the zoom on it. The only negative is where the flash is placed. It's placed near the button use to take the picture. If the flash is not already up, then once it comes up it knocks your finger out of the way and if you don't have a strong grip on the camera you might drop it. Outside of that I love the camera and it takes good pictures.

Nope, was under the impression before that one could do that. Just 1 fits in the grip and another in the actual camera body. Even the original Nikon grip is the same. You should consider the EN-EL18 battery adaptation for it although it's pricey if you're looking for faster auto-focus and longer battery lifelife.

I gave the camera to a friend. She uses it to take photos of items to sell on eBay and she says it works great. I did not remember a button being on the camera. But I asked her to check for me. She said that nothing happened but she did get a message saying the button only works on "Windows Messenger." I hope that helps.

This plugs into the port on the left side of the camera (from looking at the back) and pressing the button is like pushing the shutter buttonon your camera. A half push focuses the camera and the second half releases the shutter. You can dial in a delay, you can dial in a series do shots taken at a specified lapse time. In other words "x" number of shots "y" seconds or minutes apart. It is very intuitive. I often use a blue tape to tape the cord to the camera back and just let it dangle until I need it, taking any strain off the plug-in connection. This is a great product whic I have used a lot.

No. It does not. Has a micro-USB port, and that is it (other than the button controls for off/on, volume, and camera). If you're concerned about transfer of pictures from camera to computer, that's done with the data cable (regular USB to micro-USB).

There is only enough give for the phone to sit in portrait or up and down. However this grip has a ball and cup rotating connection like your shoulder to allow it to rotate a full 360 degrees so the camera would then shoot in landscape. Also the tripod I have my grip on has even more adjustments so I can shoot either way, and even lock in angles.

It does not have a remote sensor. It does change the feel of the camera (makes it look bigger). Also to use the vertical button the cable that is supplied with the grip has to be installed from the grip to the remote shutter port on the camera. All in all it's not to bad it does what it's designed for. If you install two batteries in it sometimes you get an error message on the camera stating battery is not compatible, all I do is remove the grip and reinstall it and it works fine.

The cord is for the "Portrait" shutter button ... the battery pack has a shutter button for you to use when shooting picture in a portrait position ... a lot easier than twisting your hand around to click the shutter button on the camera ...

I have found all thebuttons to work, however I tend to only use the shutter release and occ. the selector wheel. The clock mode on the LCD is handy. I made a point to learn what they all are for when I first installed it, but have forgoten them since I dont use them any more. I still love this grip with the extended battery life and relocated shutter release.

No the pistol grip on this is the gh100 which doesn't have shutter release button or cable. That is probably the gh300 pistol grip.

Hi Dow, the grip is also for putting two batteries in, so you load up two of your usual Canon Batteries in the back, close up the door and you are off and running. The Grip has a shutter trigger button and adjuster for aperture on it so that you have those controls when shooting portrait style. Other than that this is it. Also make sure you follow the instructions on how to remove your little battery door, and make sure you store inside the grip compartment that is designed for it, so that you don't lose it.

Yes it comes with the cord to allow you to transfer your photos from the camera to your computer.. It's a very simple drag and drop process.

The only cord I got with this is the one to connect the battery grip shutter release to the camera.

Yes. There is an adjustment wheel on the cord- right next to the shutter trigger...

Yes, it does. My purchase was for my second one. I lost my first one. I like it because it is an easy to use, small, reliable, and great picture taking camera.
