Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - once you go batgrip you never go back
Although I've never quantifiable measured number of exposures or time difference between a single battery and using the bat/grip. It feels like 3 to 4 times as much power before I need to change out the batteries. The extra weight also feels good on the camera. As far as the vertical controls, it would be nice if there was a menu/selector button on the grip so you could cycle through things. Also when I'm in vertical mode i tend to push the menu/selector button with my forehead and focal point runs ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - MB-200 for D 200
Pro's-If your going to use the camera for a extended amount of time the grip come in very handy, Makes it easy to hold and although I can't prove it I feel as if the batteries last three times as long, Also if you use any large lens 70-200 or larger, the grip give you a more sense of "balance"
Cons-It adds plenty of weight around your neck, esp with the 70-200 attached. Overall I love it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very good, but has a few of aspects that could be better
The battery grip is really good to have and I recommend it to anyone who does not have a "Professional-Level" SLR. However, there are a but things that bother me with the Nikon D200 Vertical Grip:
1. The auto-focus button on the grip is in a weird place compared to where it is on the camera. Therefore, it takes some time and a little practice to get used to it.
2. The vertical grip is not quite as comfortable feeling as the horizontal grip is. I blame this on Nikon not spending as ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Plasticky but nice
In comparisment to the D200 body this grip feels very cheap and plasticky. Also the doors to the battery compartment look like they won't last long.

But those are the only bad things about this grip. It works as it should while adding an extra weight and better balance to the camera.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - GREAT BATTERY PACK FOR NIKON D200
Great battery pack. Easily fits on the bottom of your Nikon D200 and doesn't add that much weight. Be sure to have a couple of the big batteries as pictured in some of the photos. I get those b/c they last so much longer. This battery pack also has a place inside the vertical piece to hold the D200's battery cover/lid that is on the bottom of your camera. That way you don't lose that important piece while having this on your camera. It's all right there. It has been working well and is good-looking ... Read More
