[QUOTE="Airandice, post: 597535, member: 43046"] Yes, I attached the grip while the camera was off. I first tried it with no camera in the body, then with. Nothing happened either time. As soon as I took the grip off (also while turned off), I tried just my camera to no avail. It was dead. Switched batteries around etc. but nothing happened. The camera won't turn on. I finally managed to get the grip working for like 20 seconds (as I screwed it on, the green light came on before it was fully attached...so I'm thinking it's not connecting properly). Anyway, I went to the menu and was sure that I had set it to use the camera battery first, and yet it seemed not to recognize that there was even a battery in it. Look at the cell photos so you can see what I mean. The photo where it shows the battery in the grip, also had a photo in the camera, yet it wasn't showing up that there was one there. Argh, so frustrating! So now my grip doesn't work, AND my camera is completely dead when trying to use just the battery in the camera. HELP!
