I have made a Frustkauf and buy this part. So was more of a coincidence purchase because a considered decision. But in retrospect, I must say. I do not regret it. Advantage: - Another battery grip extends the service life - There are 2 batteries included (not quite the quality of the original Nikon batteries, but adequate) I 2 Nikon batteries possess and still 2 have Meike, I can easily large photo sessions as the BMX Cologne with about 800 - drive 900 images / day without any problems - Portrait shots are easier and better to do, changing your grip when you get used to it. (If you have worked for years without the handle, one forgets the Fotografierstreß before the encompassing 8)) - Verarbeitungsqualtiät for the price very good
Disadvantage: - Camera is heavy. - Recordings with applied camera are difficult. The handle increases the camera. So if you want to make long exposures without a tripod, for example, in a church, you have something put under the lens, because the lens is no longer resting on the pew.
For me, outweigh the benefits, and how said price-performance very good.
