The handle is a good addition to the rather small body of the Nikon D7100. The buttons are where they should be. However, the 2-axis Steuerkreuzg is much smaller and shakier than the original body, seen from the haptics her times how long the holding. AE lock and the two rotary wheels are exactly in the right place. The BG can be fed zoom screws to the original body, because nothing wobbles. Beautiful it would have been, the body would have the same given in the form - as with the Dx (s) cameras. Whether you are a battery handle extra power, or as a variant a large body - so much extra effort can not be yes. 1 star deduction because of the price. Feels like 30% too expensive - also in relation to the actual camera.
