BG-N2
BAT TERY GRIP
Designed For The Nikon D80
And D90 Cameras
USER’S MANUAL
Introduction
Thank you for choosing Vello and congratulations on
your new BG-N2 battery 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-N2 is compatible with the Nikon D80
and D90 DSLR cameras. Up to (2) Nikon EN-EL3e
rechargeable batteries may be used to increase your
shooting time, or six AA batteries (alkaline, Ni-MH,
lithium, or nickel-manganese) for added convenience.
The BG-N2 is equipped with an alternate shutter-
release button, an AE-L/AF-L button, and main and
sub-command dials for shooting in a vertical orientation.
Please read through this entire manual before
using the BG-N2 battery grip.

Precautions
1. The BG-N2 should only be used with compatible
devices specified in this manual.
2. Only use with batteries and battery holders
recommended in this manual. The BG-N2 can
not be used with Nikon EN-EL3a/EN-EL3 Li-ion
batteries or other battery holders.
3. Cover the power terminals with the contact
cap when the BG-N2 is not in use. This prevents
electrical shorts caused by metal objects touching
the power terminals.
4. When the AA battery holder is removed from the
BG-N2, 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. The BG-N2 does not have a power switch. Instead,
use the camera power switch to turn the power
on or off.
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.
