\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Nikon MB-D10 Battery Grip is a welcome accessory to my D300 camera. It is very useful for shooting portraits in the studio but also doubles the battery capacity when out in the field.<\/p>\n

Build quality<\/h3>\n

The build quality is similar to the D300 - it is build like a tank! When shooting with large lenses the MB-D10 adds some extra weight to the camera which gives it a nice balance.<\/p>\n

Features<\/h3>\n

The battery grib not only makes it easier to shooting the camera in portrait position - it also includes two dials for adjusting e.g. shutter speed and aperture, AF-on button and also a small D-pad for moving the focus points, so all the important buttons are readily available both when you are shooting the camera in landscape and portrait position.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Nikon MB-D10 Battery Grib is compatible with the Nikon D300, D300s and D700 cameras. Not only do you get twice the battery capacity - it also boosts the shooting speed: Where the Nikon D300 would normally be limited to 5fps it can do 8fps with the MB-D10 mounted.<\/p>\n

The MB-D10 accepts both a EN-EL3e or EN-EL4a lithium-ion battery. If you forgot to bring your charger you can even use 8 standard AA batteries.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n

The only drawbacks I can think of is the added weight and the price of course - but actually the weight gives a better balance when shooting with heavy lenses, so it is not so bad actually.<\/p>\n

Given the very good build quality, excellent handling, great flexibility regarding battery types and all the right features this is a highly recommended accessory for a D300\/D300s\/D700 camery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
