Problem With Your MB-D10? [Posted on 2008-09-11] Purchased a Nikon MB-D10 from Amazon about two months ago. Worked great for two weeks - then it caused the LCD display and the auto focus on my D300 to stop working. Apparently there was a short circuit in the grip. Nikon was great - fixed it in 24 hours. Three weeks later, same problem. Back to Nikon service it went.
Today's UPS brings me a brand new unit from Nikon, no questions asked.
I love Nikon products and realize that nothing is perfect - but Nikon service is close.
Robust [Posted on 2008-09-18] Provides the extra juice to power through a long day's shoot without having to change batteries. Adds considerable weight.
Solid product [Posted on 2008-09-28] Pros:
- Solid build
- Extra battery time
- 8fps with AAs or EN-EL4a/e
- Works with AA batteries
- Works as advertised
Cons
- Vertical shutter is not the same sensitivity as the one on the D300
- No AF lock button
- Release lever is plastic (potential to break)
-------------------------
Overall it is solid and works quite well. Only thing I wish It had was is a AF lock hold button. I use it a lot when shooting, but I can't reach it using the vertical position.
8FPS [Posted on 2008-09-30] What else is there to say... I put NiMH Batteries in this puppy, and I can now burn through a 4GB Card in no time!! :) The construction is very professionally designed.. Others have talked about the vertical button being touchy... I didn't see that with mine. My D300 now also feels more secure in my hands.
Not really worth the money [Posted on 2008-10-01] Having the ability to shoot a little faster is nice in sports photography but really not needed in most cases. If you want to get the most out of your D700/300 get it which is the main reason why I did. The vertical grip is good but I can do the vertical shots without it just as good. The extra battery life is nice when I went on a week long trip. I took about 1000 pictures so I could of gotten by if I just brought my charger along or a extra battery pack. For the contents I decided to just go with the Nimh double AA batteries. I had some already with the SB-600 speedlight and knew how well they worked.
