5.0 out of 5 stars BP-200, November 1, 2001

This is a must have for any Rebel 2000 owner. The BP helps balance the camera if you have a large telephoto lens and the vertical shutter adds great functionality. It still maintains a hole for tripod/monopod mounting. It is worth the small investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than just a battery pack!, January 4, 2001

This is a great addition to the camera. It does more than just give you the ability to use AA batteries. While providing better balance when shooting horizontal shots, turn the camera vertically and you will be pleasantly surprised at the new found grip this battery pack provides. It also adds a very handy extra shutter button so when you turn the camera vertically you don't have to reach over to push original shutter button. Therefore, giving you much better balance when shooting vertically. Also when using an electronic flash, this pack acts as a counter weight to offset the additional weight from the flash and again giving you better balance while shooting. Excellent buy!

I have the BP-200 for some weeks now and i love it. First the use of normal aa batteries is nice way to lower cost. The extra grip and shutter release button are very helpfull. I use it with my Canon EOS 300 (european model) and i don't want to lose it. It's Just Great.
