You don;t need the CR2 batteries with the BG10. One word of advice - when you put the BG 10 on your MZ-S, you will remove a rectangular rubber cover from the bottom of the Mz-S to make room for the contacts on the BG-10. Put this in a safe place - NOT on the BG-10 (which has a slot to hold this cover.) I put mine there and a few weeks ago realized it was missing - not surprising since nothing really holds it in place. Of course - it is back ordered and unavailable. For now, I have no choice but to use the battery grip.
