I wonder how a battery grip would affect weathersealing of a camera? I don't have a grip (canon or otherwise) so this could be a silly concern, butthe 7D is a weather sealed camera, so wouldn't the grip have to be weathersealed as well? I would think (hope) canon would take this in consideration, but how about 3ed party grips? Would the weathersealing be up to the same standard? Or would there be a potential to let water into the battery compartment of the camera at the attachment to the grip? Also, are any other ports weathersealed (like the monitory plug or shutter release mentioned above)?


For what it's worth, this is definately something I would consider before purchasing.
