I was on location today using the 5D & grip with 2 fresh genuine Canon batts when I lost the ability to shoot completely.
The menu was coming on fine so the camera had power but the top lcd just had a battery icon, nothing else - but the icon was showing full battery (both batteries were pretty much full). No aperture wb or other data at all
There was no error message, no err99 just couldn't shoot. I changed lenses but that didn't help then I dropped the grip and went back to one battery and it worked ok again.
I haven't heard of problems with the 5D grip, has anyone had this happen?
