User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars It’s what canon Left OUT of the Kit
This is what Canon left out of the kit. Well, not really but it would have been nice to find one in the box. Though it’s really only good for stationary studio work.

But, that is exactly why I bought these adapter. I can leave Liveview running full time while I do product shots and never have to swap out batteries after a couple hours or so…I would say for me it’s worth it;s weight in gold. Just slips into your battery compartment and on the 40D the cord exits sort of out the front of the body. There is a small rubber flap I never noticed until I bought the adapter and had to figure out how it was going to work given the battery door…hehehe…turns out Canon was thinking ahead on this one.

I highly recommend this to anyone who shoots a lot of static studio product shots and needs Liveview. It will save you 2-3x it’s cost in the first year you use it since you won’t need extra BP511A batteries for your studio time. There is pretty much no strain on the camera from the adapter so you could, with a long enough extension cord and some nimble feet, move around a bit with the camera off the tripod.

5 Stars Great Idea!
I don’t have to worry about battery power when taking many photos at one time.

4 Stars Works as advertised
Plugged it in, worked like a charm. Could stand to be cheaper… if you can get a hold of a cheaper, reliable alternative, go for it.

4 Stars Canon Adapter Kit
Compareble cheap and high quality item. I also admire that Amozon delivered it on time. Thanks a lot.

5 Stars Power for indoor shoots that doesn’t fail
I use these adapter kits to power my cameras on indoor professional shoot sessions. They are reliable and easy to use in my Canon EOS digital cameras.
