Customer Reviews
Excellent Grip
I didn't think I needed this grip before. At some point I decided to get one, mainly because I do a lot of portrait work. I am so glad I picked this up. It really is more comfortable to hold it on the side when doing portraits instead of wrapping my hand over the top. It has a shutter release, AF-ON button, command and subcommand dials, and even a multi-selector. So you have access to the controls while holding the camera in the portrait orientation.
The battery tray slides out the side and you can switch between a tray that holds an extra EN-EL3e battery or a different tray that holds 8 AA batteries. If you use the 8 AA batteries then you get an extra couple frames per second. You can also purchase a tray for the EN-EL4a battery and use one of those if you want and get the extra frames per second that way.
Anyhow, this grip was a great addition to my kit and I completely thrilled with it.
Totally Necessary
If you own a D300/D700 and you shoot more than just the kids' soccer games, then you need this.
I use it with 8 NiMH AA Energizers because it seems more economical than the upgrade batter and plug (for me). Still shoots 8 fps with AAs.
If you shoot (semi)professionally, don't look around, don't buy the knock off, just hit "PURCHASE" then add overnight! You'll be glad you did.
Turns your D700 into a better camera than a D3
Combine this with the EN-EL4 battery adapter and you basically have an updated D3. Works great, gives you the vertical grip extra shutter, selector dials and directional pad but doesn't add a ton of weight. Comes with battery adapters for AA bateries or another EN-el3 battery (the same as in the camera). I have taken pictures all day and still had plenty of battery left.
The only thing Nikon could do to improve this is to include the EN-EL4 battery adapter in the box.
