Hi all,
I have a Canon 350d and have just purchased the battery pack ( BG-E3 ) for this camera from ebay, it came with no instructions and was wondering if anyone out there had a copy to scan and mail to me at johnawalker@blueyonder.co.uk
I have googled it and tried the Canon site but with no luck, so any help would be appreciated.

Thankyou
John

This would get more response if posted in the Camera section instead of the Site Features Request area ;-)

I have Nikon gear. The battery grip should be similar tho. Find the tab on the side where the battery tray opens. Insert battery. Close. On the bottom of the canon body there are likely rubber pieces that you have to remove. Line up the battery grip to the body and turn the knob on the grip to screw the two together. Your camera will automatically detect the grip and pull battery power from that.

If there is a vertical shutter release button there might be a switch to turn it off and on. Turn it off to avoid accidental misfired shots lol
