Sehr griffig, ordentlich verarbeitet und sinnvolle Lösung des Einschubfachs für die Akkus. Der Übergang in die Kamera (via Akku-Dummy) ist ganz gut gelöst. So wird auch der Ladezustand der Akkus im Griff in der Kamera angezeigt.Was fehlt:- Ladebuchse um die Akkus im Gerät zu laden (oder bei Kälte die Akkus zu unterstützen).Was könnte besser sein::- Die Fernbedienung ist (an sich) ganz gut, ich würde mir aber einen Ein/Aus Schalter wünschen und die Option, die eingestellten Parameter dauerhaft zu sichern.- Der Auslöseknopf nicht so gut wie der in der Kamera eingebaute. Deutlich "billigeres" DruckgefühlDas nicht alle Funktionen im Griff integriert sind ist nicht dem Hersteller geschuldet sondern Sony hat das für die a6500 einfach nicht vorgesehen.

The remote did not work at all. The buttons did not work and nothing could be set or operated.Also, you need to remove the battery door on the camera to attach the grip.

I had purchased another unit that said it was correct for the Sony a6500. Sortof but not really.This unit is made to fit! Solid construction. Zero gaps and has a bit larger grip area so it fits my hand well.Hasn't been off the camera since the day it arrived. With Sony batteries the camera recognizes power levels and does indeed extend the shooting time.If your looking for a grip that fits the Sony a6500 - this is it!

i think amazon sent me a defective grip.the on and off switch was only to enable the shutter button of the grip, but for me when i turn the switch off the whole camera turns off.all in all it has a really good grip

After purchasing a Sony a6500 mirrorless digital camera, I discovered an inherent problem - the 4K video feature can only be used for about 20 to 30 minutes before the camera shuts down due to heat caused largely by battery discharging. There are many "tricks" used by other a6500 camera owners to try to disperse heat and allow the camera to run for a few minutes longer. The Meike MK-6500 Pro Battery Grip eliminates the problem entirely by removing the battery from the camera, and also doubles the battery life by incorporating two-batteries into the grip without increasing the overall hand-held dimensions. Because the batteries are now located below the camera body, the camera-body height is increased, as is the camera weight, but in many extended 4K video use applications a tripod or mono-pod will be used - so the extra body height and weight isn't a factor.

Fit is very good. Function is very good. Increase in battery life by using two batteries is good. The bad? Well, I dislike having to have a cable link the grip to the camera to get shutter function from the grip and, it's a proprietary cable so if it goes bad I don't know where to get another one. What really bugs me is even with the grip and camera turned off, the batteries in the grip are being drained over a matter of days just sitting there. Again, both the grip and camera are in off position and the batteries drain completely dead. I still give it 4 stars for fit, price, function and the nice remote with multiple functions.

This is a great battery extension and really helps grip the camera better. Those are two of my biggest issues with the 6500 - not being able to hold it steady and battery life. This solved both of those issues! The grip feels nice and doesn't feel very cheap, and it functions perfectly! I have seen that some people said their's do not flawlessly switch batteries when one dies. Mine worked perfectly and switched to the battery with power with no issue. Only minor complaint is that you have to remove the grip from the camera to get the to battery and SD slot, but this is rarely even issue. Very good product and I highly recommend!

Took a long while to get here (three weeks), but the build quality is very good and it works well, as well as the remote. The instructions for the remote are somewhat confusing, but the unit works well. Seems solid , and when screwed in tight, there seems to be no wobble. Yes you will need to plug the controlling cord into the A6500 for the grip's and remote's full functions to work. Not for rain duty as this configuration exposes the mic jack and hdmi port. Or you can simply use the grip for the extra battery capacity, and just use the camera's shutter button alone. No thumbwheels on the grip. But again this is a $68 unit.For the price this is a keeper. Even though you have to remove the grip to access the sd card slot which shares the camera's battery location. Really just a mistake of Sony's design. Until Sony moves the card slot's position this is really the best extra battery design you could have.Update: Sept. 2017; My A6500's usb port stopped working. Repaired under Sony warranty. I suspect having Meike grip's control cord constantly plugged in here,during use and travel ,caused wear to the port. Now I just use the Meike grip for its added battery capacity now, no vertical button or remote control now as A6500 has no internal controls connectivity for a grip. Still worth it for the added battery capacity.

For a Camera like Sony A6500 this kind of battery grip is essential. I had a second thought before ordering it. But once after the delivery and installation, this is needed for my A6500. I shoot in 4k for many occasions and the existing Sony Battery 1020 MAH allow me to shoot for 30 mins only. This grip boosted and added EXTRA to my requirements. The color and the material of this battery grip goes well with the A6500 body. Me being a professional on Video shooting, I cannot carry a grey market product. This grip fits well in looks along with A6500. As the A6500 body size is small, this Grip gets you a good hold.The battery arrangement goes like this: Dummy Battery into the A6500. Battery 1 and Battery 2 has to be placed inside the frame of BatteryGrip. Don’t get confusedAs everyone mentioned, you get the full functionality with that of the remote, the cable has to run through the BatteryGrip and Sony A6500. This is not at all an issue when you are operating the camera in a tripod. You need to be little cautious while operating by holding in hand. This is a catch here.Also, you need to remove the BatteryGrip if you want to remove the Memory Card. That is the engineering part of Sony. Nikon/Cannon models has a dedicated slot for the Memory Cards. Keep in mind that, always you can access the memory card with a cable connected to the camera.I am much impressed with this product, as my requirement is a Battery Boost as I take photos and Videos for long time. Yes, there are few inconvenience of removing the memory card and also the connectivity of cables to attain the full functionality of the remote. It all depends on your needs. I have 128 GB memory card and so I don’t need to remove the memory card often. Also I shoot by placing the camera in a Tripod so the cable connectivity doesn’t mean to be an issue for me.I would recommend this product for a professional person.

Using this on Sony A6500 and it is a god send. My only complaint is that i wish i didn't have to use a cable from camera to grip to have the remote work but it's a small price to pay for such an amazing accessory for this camera. To add, the Sony batteries are so small that they discharge quickly so it's nice to have something where you can have one battery on standby.

Nice battery grip for my A6500. This product has a very nice rubber grip that matches the feel of the camera. The overall color and texture also matches the a6500. The only cons I have would be that when you are ready to access your photos you have to remove the grip because for some reason Sony thought it would be a good idea to put the SD card in the battery compartment (really Sony?). Not really the fault of the grip. Another thing that would have been nice was if the grip mated electronically to the A6500 so that you didn't have to use the included cable to fire the camera using the grip. (again a design failure by Sony.) I didn't take any stars off for either of these cons because they are really not the fault of the grip. Just wanted readers to know that these small setbacks exists. Overall, very nice grip, decent build quality but not perfect.
