I love you video on this here Joe you did fantastic if you can put out a part 2 on this to show us how to hook up the electrical part for the shutter button is active , and of course the battery compartment being able to power the grip that'd be great , it's shameful of Canon not to make a grip available for the R7 .
@@joewhitnallphotography I’ve ordered a battery grip (CEX has them for 10.95 including postage) so I can at least follow the steps from this vid, and hopefully get the shutter button sorted in the future.
KAN JE MIJ LATEN ZIEN HOE JE DE ONTSPANKNOP OP DE BATTERY PACK CONNECT MET EEN KABEL NAAR DE SHUTTER PLUG-IN OP DE CAMERABODY? KAN JE DAAR OOK EEN VIDEO VAN LATEN ZIEN?
Sorry, but that isn't going to work; there is no mechanical "stop" to react the torque from the camera body, all the load is being carried by the tripod screw (and the frictional contact between the grip and the camera base). The main interest of an APS-C camera is to use a big heavy telephoto like the sublime 100-400mm, but the mass will always be working to over-tighten or loosen the tripod screw. Shame on Canon for not making a battery grip for the R7, and shame on them for not at least leaving a hole for a torque reaction pin for 3rd party grip makers. I rarely use my 7Dii or my 80D without their grips.
I've been testing this for a few months without issue with big primes. Never unscrewed itself, I'm looking to see if I can make it more secure in version 2 It is annoying Canon just didn't make one though for sure
