Can this be used in the vertical grip battery compartment ?

It works in the camera's regular battery compartment, if that's what you mean. The part of the adapter that's shaped like a battery fits in the camera where the battery would normally go. To emerge from the camera, the cable threads through a slot in the battery compartment in a way that's not entirely intuitive, and the adapter comes with no instructions. However, the camera's original manual (at least in the case of the Canon 20D) does show where that cable should go.

This will work fine with a battery grip. You'll need to locate the small rubber flap/seal that will allow the cable to be routed out of the grip so the door can close.

the battery door detaches and there is a slot on the grip to put it so you don't loose it. the slot is on the section that gets inserted into the camera.in the picture here it is the right where the slot is on the vertical part. exactly what forrest said. but I've actually just put the door totally off and in a drawer because I never take the battery grip off.

I just bought one more battery to use the grip. The grip also comes with an extra tray to use AA batteries.

Yes you can. you lift the butterfly cover and the battery compartment is underneath there. its held on by magnets

The grip comes with a AA battery adaptor you can use in a pinch...I have never tried it as I have several batteries...it is a must have if you take any pictures in the vertical position

To the best of my knowledge it can not be. The battery pack can be placed on ur belt using the holster. Its a pretty good design to be used in many situations.

A double A battery adaptor comes with the grip...never tried it as I have spare batteries for it

Too tight a fit to be useful. I'd say no. You may want to buy the battery manufacturers horizontal case instead.

You should not need anything besides the grip for it to function properly. You will probably want to purchase another battery. It also takes 8 AA batteries if you want to go that route. But it should work like intended right out of the box.

I believe you can..... I was shocked at first to find out my 12 v slide type, wasn't comparable it has to be the push in type battery. Now it is advertised 12-18 v so the voltage is good but the battery format has to be the push in type

Not with it's current sheath system....you can possibly try a custom Kydex sheath with a mini Tech-Lok configured for a horizontal mount.

I have never tried VF-3 with battery grip. Sorry, I'm not able to answer your question.

You may have a hard time opening battery compartment of the grip with it attached. This is true of my Canon 5D MKII and 7D grips. Minor inconvience but with 2 batteries in there I have yet to have to deal with that on a job. There are screw holes for a mounting plate although I haven't tried mounting one.

It will fit in the battery tray but you may need to find a different way of holding it down.

There's plenty of room in the bag to set up the velcro walls to fit your configuration. I don't have a battery grip on mine so I can't say 100% it would meet your needs but I wouldn't hesitate trying to use it with this bag.

Hi,It probably won't as the means of attaching it is with the tripod mount. With a battery grip attached you are extending the height of the camera. There are viewfinders out there that attach by a sticky substance similar to that used on LCD screen protectors. You might try checking ebay to get some idea of what's available.. I know HOODMAN makes extenders but they are expensive.
