Overview

The Canon Extension Grip EG-E1 in blue is a purpose-built accessory for the Canon EOS RP, one of Canon's most compact full-frame mirrorless cameras. While the EOS RP's small body is great for portability, some photographers find it a bit too slim for a secure grip — especially during longer shoots or when using heavier lenses. The EG-E1 solves this by extending the grip surface downward, giving your fingers more to hold onto and distributing the camera's weight more comfortably in your hand.

Made in Taiwan, the grip attaches securely to the bottom of the EOS RP via a male-to-female connector and features a hinged panel so you can swap batteries without detaching it. At just 0.3 pounds, it barely affects the camera's overall weight. The blue finish adds a distinctive look that sets your kit apart, though Canon also offers it in black and red for those who prefer a more understated appearance. It's a simple, well-executed accessory that addresses the EOS RP's one ergonomic shortcoming without overcomplicating things.
