Canon BG-E9 - Battery grip - for EOS 60D

The Canon BG-E9 is the battery/vertical control grip for the Canon EOS 60D digital SLR camera. It allows two batteries to be used simultaneously to allow for longer shooting times. The Canon BG-E9 also provides a more comfortable grip when using the EOS 60D in the vertical/portrait orientation as key controls such as the shutter release button are duplicated on the grip to provide easier use when the camera is rotated through 90 degrees.
