Canon EG-E1 Extension Grip for Canon EOS RP Mirrorless, Red Review

The Canon EG-E1 is a dedicated extension grip designed specifically for the Canon EOS RP mirrorless camera, available in red to match the camera's optional color variant. It attaches to the base of the camera to provide additional vertical height and improve handling, particularly for users with larger hands or those who want a more secure grip on the compact EOS RP body. The extension does not add battery capacity or controls, it simply extends the grip surface.

At $56, the EG-E1 is a straightforward ergonomic accessory for EOS RP owners who find the camera's native grip too small. It's a simple mechanical add-on that increases the camera's footprint slightly while maintaining its light weight. The red finish is a niche option for those who purchased the red EOS RP body, though Canon also offers the grip in black. This is a single-purpose tool with no frills, aimed squarely at users prioritizing comfort over minimalism.
