Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about how to find the manuals, drivers, downloads and support for Digital Cameras.

Digital Camera Manuals, Drivers, Downloads, and Support

I understand there isn't a manual, just a quick how-to guide. Here's some basic use info from a review
http://www.the-digital-picture.com/reviews/canon-bg-e6-battery-grip-review.aspx

The Canon BG-E6 Battery Grip is designed specifically for the Canon EOS 5D Mark II as shown above with a Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L II USM Lens mounted. To get the Canon BG-E6 Battery Grip into the position shown, the LP-E6 Battery is removed from the 5D II and the battery door detaches. The BG-E6 slides up into the battery compartment and locks into place via the tripod socket screw seen on the BG-E6 just below the lens in the above image. The BG-E6 provides its own tripod adapter threads - this functionality is not lost.

The Canon BG-E6 Battery Grip holds two Canon LP-E6 Batteries that deliver double the number of shots or video time from the 5D II. Alternatively, use 6 AA batteries in the included Canon BGM-E6 Battery Magazine shown below.

If the problem still happens after multiple resets contact the place you bought the camera from and see if you can get a replacement. If the camera is still under warranty canon will try and repair your camera and won't replace unless it is unable to be fixed.

Try operate the camera without lens, if the camera works without lens, then you change the lens, camera is fine.

If its a year, request that canon fix it free of charge under its warrenty.

Charge the battery, and or buy a new battery to see if its fixed. Bestbuy if there is one close to you is the first place I look for a battery.

Make sure you have your flash & timing set where it is supposed to be, usually between 120 & 180. This is the shutter timing and flash duration. It is the syncronizing speed setting. If possible, turn off the automatic review, this slows things up. Also, if possible, use a power cord for the flash instead of batteries. Not all have this feature but, the flash is ready for the next shot in about 1 second.

check the battery and flash card doors. are they propely shut?

Sent and received my Cannon EOS-5D from Canon and they replaced the power supply assembly. It had shorted out. They did not tell me why it shorted out so I'm left with the question of what is/are the event(s) that caused the power assembly to short out. I don't have a warm and fuzzy feeling that the problem has been fixed.
