Sony VG-C5 Vertical Grip, A9 III, Battery Grips
Designed exclusively for the Sony a9 III mirrorless camera, the VG-C5 Vertical Grip enhances both battery life and shooting comfort in the vertical orientation. This grip accommodates either one or two NP-FZ100 batteries, extending the overall battery life for prolonged shooting sessions. The batteries can be conveniently charged within the grip while connected to the camera via the body's USB port. Notably, the VG-C5 features upgraded circuitry, enabling parallel power supply for even more extended operation times. The camera display indicates the remaining battery life for both batteries. The layout of the grip mirrors that of the camera body, providing a seamless user experience. It includes a secondary shutter button, Multi-Selector for intuitive navigation, and a secondary C5 front custom button. Constructed from robust magnesium alloy, the grip is dust and moisture resistant, aligning with the camera's weather-sealing capabilities.

Makes the camera handling just that little easier, especially in the larger hand

Perfect, also it is designed right. Doesn't look goofy like a Nikon grip.

The way it seats in the camera is very snug, no contact points that seem to damage anything on the body and vice versa.

The usual good Sony build quality but with the new and improved ergonomics from the A9 III. Having both the C5 button and the assignable rear dial added are excellent. I have noticed that the overall fit of the grip to the A9 III bodies is better than what I have with the previous generation grip on my A7RV.My only wish for this setup is the lack of battery handling options. The camera will just draw off both batteries in the grip simultaneously as long as they are near the same charge level. My preference would be to draw down one battery then move to the next which would allow for being able to make battery changes of an individual battery at more convenient times. Hopefully this can be added as a selectable setting in a future firmware update for the A9 III.
Much more ergonomic, added a missing dial. Of course you need an A9III to use it, but we can hope this will be the new grip on an updated A1.
The 9 III is a fantastic camera but, for me, is too small for comfortable use with larger, birding lenses. Adding the grip makes for a great overall package in terms of handling & balance.
Transforms the a9mk3 shooting experience. High quality accessory
