Seeing as I don't know how your bags padding is configured all I can say is that I fit my D7000 with one of my lens attached and the other two next to it. Then in the other opening is where my flash and filters sit. Just treat it like a jigsaw and play around with the padding until you fit it all in or just opt out your least needed lens or the grip (I don't own a grip so I couldn't say how to fit one in). Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, good luck.

I only been able to fit a 1DX with a 70-200 towards the right of the bag, then fit 24-70 & 15mm fisheye towards the upper left side (2 dividers). U may have to put the flash in the top pocket. plenty of space there.

I first ran into some issues where when I had a Nikon battery and a third-party battery at the same time, it the camera wouldn't recognize that a battery was in place. I believe I solved this by putting the Nikon battery in the grip and the third-party battery in the camera. There's also nothing that says you NEED to have a battery in the grip to use functions such as the vertical shutter button, so you could always just use a single battery inside the camera body and leave the grip empty. You *should* be able to finagle the order so that you don't have any issues, though. The grip itself is fantastic in build quality, and I highly recommend it.

To ED F,New 50d owner thanks you for advice on 50D over older 5D. After reading Ken Rockwell's info on the advantage of a full frame sensor, sensor size posed my only regret. If I continue to expand my system I can add the 5D Mark II. I know from the past that it is nice to have two bodies. In the 80's I had (still have) the New F1 w/speedfinder for telephoto pics and what I called my "Focus and Shoot" AE1 Program for everything else. What a combo! I'm new to digital and I have a lot to learn and my 50D should work out nicely.Bob

I saw that also. I want to say the ones I had checked were in the 308**** range if I'm remembering right. 30** for sure. Bummer. I'm running out of summer and I've got the itch for a DSLR. I may go for the Canon T1i. But I really like the user menu Nikon uses. That and the pictures seem better.

As far as I am aware 60d does not have a 3 pin connector. So you will have to get a converter. Or get a different model from satechi (Satechi MTR-C I guess)

It's funny you mention the lense. I have put it my pocket and now it wont close. It is a real pain. I thank you for your honesty. It probably was a rep I was talking to. I wish I could have tried the casio beforexmaking my purchase. But I didn't have the time to wait for it to get here by mail. Perhaps my next camera purchase will be the casio. Thought the canon seems to be working well for now. As long as I make sure the lense cover is completely open. Thanks again.

I think Tom's answer is the right think to do, I was photographing off road races the last week and as. A test bring my Oly epl 3 with two prime MD lenses a 50 and 200, using the same adapter and works surprisingly GOOD, if you try everything and doesn't work may be its defective! good Luck always here to help if you need.

I have a Canon, and didn't have a problem. Maybe try googling your problem, someone probably has a solution already out there.

I don't have a Nikon, but I have a Canon and the levers don't match up with my Canon either. You must match the dots on the tubes to the dots on the camera, the same as putting the lens on, you have to match the dots up on it also. I love my extension tubes.

Some old film-era third-party lenses may not be 100% compatible with Canon's DLSRs. Sigma lenses are more likely to have issues though. Note that the 60D and other non-pro Canon DSLRs have a sensor that is smaller than a frame of 35mm film so your lenses will act 1.6 times longer on a DSLR. Your Tamron 28-105mm, for example, will act more like a 45-168mm lens so you will completely lose the wide end on a DSLR. For that and other reasons, I would recommend getting the camera with one of the kit lenses.

Thanks for the information. I was using a Canon 28-135 IS USM as my walk around travel lens and loved it until it got stolen in an airport! :-( Now I'm in the market for a new lens and I'm leaning towards the Tamron. I've used their lens in my past photography life with my old AE-1 Program and I'd LOVE the 18-270 if I can swing the $$$. I'm hunting eBay as well, as that's where I got my 28-135 and had NO problems with it at all!

While I have not used this grip on a 20D, I have a friend who uses it on a 50D, and she loves it. No complaints.

I, too, am having shutter problems. I have had my D50 camera since 2005 and have close to 18K shutter releases. Now, it completely sticks, gives me an "ERR" message and then I have to click again to release it, but it will not take a picture. I have loved my camera since the moment I got it. Now I need to ship it to Nikon and wait for the estimate. $300 to repair it??? is it worth it?

I have the same queation as D Goel...and what is the "UD"? i HAVE PURCHASED TWO 60D's with the 18-135 kit lens. Had to return the first because of a flaw in the front element, now am faced with exchanging this new one as well because of dust visible in the interior glass. Am considering buying just the camera body and getting the lens separately. Maybe the kit lens is being manufactured with a lower standard of QC?

Have the same problem as well...didn't have it with D700 or D300. Really not pleased given this is a $3K camera. Really lowers the pleasure of using this camera - may have to return.

I have grips for both my cameras (a Canon 5D Mk III and a Canon 69D). My workhorse camera (the 5D) has the grip on all the time. No use the wear and tear of taking it off and putting it on all the time), while 60D is my travel camera and back up for the 5D. Since you have to take off the battery door to mount the grip, and ten replace the door when you remove the grip (for travel), I seldom use the grip on the 60D. It depends on how often you are going to need the extra battery. I hope this helps. D. Phares, Chandler, AZ.
