Canon EG-E2 Extension Grip for EOS R8 Mark II - 7624C001

Canon 7624C001 EG-E2 Extension Grip for EOS R8 Mark II

The Canon EG-E2 Extension Grip 7624C001 is designed exclusively for the Canon EOS R8 Mark II.¹ For photographers and hybrid creators who enjoy the portability of a compact camera but prefer more body beneath the hand, this ergonomic accessory creates a taller, more secure handheld position. Added lower-hand support gives the pinky finger a comfortable place to rest, helping the camera feel settled during still and video work. The extended hold can also improve the sense of balance when the EOS R8 Mark II is paired with a larger lens.

Canon keeps everyday operation simple with a direct turn-dial attachment that does not require removing the camera's battery-compartment cover. Because the battery and SD card remain accessible, either can be replaced while the extension grip stays installed. An integrated tripod socket also maintains tripod compatibility without an extra removal step. Together, these practical details let the grip remain in place as a shoot moves from handheld framing to a tripod setup or continues through routine battery and memory card changes.

Beyond its handling benefits, the EG-E2 is designed to look at home on the EOS R8 Mark II. Its closely matched finish complements the camera body, while styling influenced by classic Canon camera heritage gives the accessory a cohesive appearance. The grip also serves as an ergonomic support point for a more natural shooting experience. For users seeking another measure of holding security, it accommodates the optional Canon Hand Strap E2, which is sold separately.²

Key Features

Enhanced Ergonomics

The EG-E2 increases the usable gripping area below the compact camera body, giving the lower fingers more surface to engage. Shooters who favor a taller camera can establish a confident hold, while the added support helps the camera-and-lens combination feel more manageable during extended handheld use.

Get a Grip

A dial-based connection makes the accessory straightforward to install or detach without disturbing the battery door. Its open-access design keeps essential camera functions within reach, and the built-in tripod connection supports quick transitions between mobile shooting and a stabilized setup.
