USER’S MANUAL

BG-S1

Introduction

Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations on

your new BG-S1battery grip purchase. Enjoy the many

benefits that a battery grip offers, such as extended

shooting time and more control and comfort when

shooting in a vertical (portrait) orientation.

The Vello BG-S1is compatible with the Sony Alpha

SLT-A77, A77 II, and A99 II DSLR cameras. The BG-S1

accepts two Sony NP-FM500H rechargeable batteries.

The BG-S1is equipped with an alternate shutter-

release button, AF start button, smart teleconverter/

focus magnifier, Fn/image rotation, AEL/slow sync/image

index, AF/MF/enlarge, and exposure compensation

buttons, a Multi selector, and a main dial for shooting in

a vertical position.

Please read through this entire manual before using

the BG-S1 battery grip.

Precautions

1. The BG-S1should only be used with compatible

devices specified in this manual.

2. Only use with batteries and battery holders

recommended in this manual.

3. Cover the power terminals with the contact

cap when the BG-S1is not in use. This prevents

electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching

the power terminals.

4. When the battery holder is removed from the

grip, remove the batteries or place the holder in

a container to prevent electrical shorts caused by

contact with other metal objects.

5. If you notice smoke, an unusual smell or noise from

the battery pack, discontinue use immediately.

Remove the batteries and take the device to a Vello

authorized reseller.

6. Turn the grip power off when not shooting

vertically.

7. The battery level may not display properly if

batteries are inserted before mounting the grip.

8. Remove batteries from the grip when not in use.

9. Do not attempt to disassemble.

10. Avoid water or extreme humidity and keep in a

dry and cool place.

11. Keep out of reach of children.
