Do you have a Battery Grip for your DSLR?

Do you have a Battery Grip accessory for your DSLR?

A couple of years ago I wrote about my experience of buying a battery grip for my DSLR – while it added bulk and weight to my camera – I did find it had some benefits.

However two years later I have to say that I don’t really use it that often.

The only real times I’ve pulled it out have been on days that I know I’ve got to take a lot of images (weddings mainly). Otherwise It stays at home.

I’m interested to hear what others think – do you have a battery grip for your DSLR? If so – do you actually use it much?
