Fantastic Deal!November 21, 2007 What a fantastic deal for this addition to my E-1. If you are a hobbist or even a professional I absolutely recommend this a must have!
Olympus SHLd Power Battery HolderApril 4, 2007 WOW! I think I got a great deal. Go on the Olympus site and see what you will pay for the exact same thing. I saved a bundle.
Great accessory for the E-1March 29, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This battery grip and long life battery are a great accessory for the E-1. I bought one about a year ago for nearly $200 and thought it was a good buy then. I bought my second unit recently at Amazon for $75 and it is a steal at this price.
The BLL-01 battery will last about 1000 shots and recharges very quickly. The grip allows you to attach some of the longer lenses, the 50-200 and the 35-100 with much more balance. The portrait shutter release is also a nice touch.
I plan to use my two E-1's for quite some time. I shoot weddings and this grip/extended battery is perfect for my use.
