X-T4 Vertical Battery Grip

Fujifilm VG-XT4 Vertical Battery Grip — Double the Runtime for Full Travel Days

The gist: The official grip doubles the X-T4’s shot count and adds a full mirror set of shooting controls for vertical portraits — a practical investment for travel photographers who can’t stop to charge mid-day.

• Triple battery capacity: Two additional NP-W235 batteries increase total shooting from approximately 600 to 1,450 frames in Normal mode — up to 1,700 in Economy mode.
• Seamless battery switching: Automatically continues shooting from the next battery when one depletes, even during burst sequences or video recording.
• Weather-sealed to X-T4 standard: Dust and water resistant with -10°C freeze protection — matches the body’s own sealing for cold-weather or humid travel conditions.
• Complete vertical controls: Adds a shutter release, focus lever, AE-L/AF-ON buttons, and front/rear command dials so portrait orientation feels as natural as landscape.

Fujifilm’s official specification confirms the 1,450-frame normal mode figure and notes that battery switching is seamless even during continuous burst or video capture — critical for event and wildlife photographers who can’t miss a moment.

Best for: X-T4 owners on multi-day trips, wildlife excursions, or weddings who need all-day battery life and ergonomic portrait shooting. Skip it if: You own an X-T3 or X-T5 — this grip is exclusively for the X-T4 body. Runs ~$149 — check the current price before buying.
