By using two batteries - one in the camera and the other in
the grip*, the DMW-BGG9 doubles the battery life for
extended shooting. It also makes gripping more
comfortable even in vertical angle shooting. Exclusively
designed for the LUMIX G9, the DMW-BGG9 perfectly
matches the camera, boasting a splash/dust/freeze-proof
rugged design.
* A battery pack is not included in the DMW-BGG9.
Splash Proof is a term used to describe an extra level of protection
this battery grip offers against exposure to a minimal amount of
moisture, water or dust. Splash Proof does not guarantee that
damage will not occur if this battery grip is subjected to direct contact
with water.
