Battery Grip Vertical Shutter for Sony Alpha A500 A550 VG-B50AM

This professional handy battery grip for Sony α (Alpha) DSLR-A500 & A550 completely replaced Sony original VG-B50AM Vertical Grip. The Vertical Grip also can hold two NP-FM500H Lithium batteries - effectively doubling your shooting capacity. The Sony α (Alpha) A500/A550 battery grip provides improved flexibility, not only helps steady your hand in both vertical and horizontal positions, but also provides a stable platform for shooting portraits, still-life shots and other subjects requiring vertical format.

It also provides redundant controls for key functions and a shutter release that is located right at your fingertips when using the camera in the vertical position - eliminating the need for the contorted balancing act often required accessing the camera controls when shooting vertically.
