[QUOTE="STM, post: 330565, member: 12827"] The MB-D10 I have for my D700 mimics the build quality of the camera. Within reason, I would not be hesitant to put the camera on a tripod and use the tripod socket on the grip because it is made of metal. Of course if the lens has its own tripod socket, like my 300mm f/2.8 and 600mm f/4's do, then you should never use the socket on the camera or the grip. The third party ones I have looked at are essentially all plastic and honestly I would be hesitant to put them on a tripod with any lens longer than a 135mm. The 180mm f/2.8 is out of the question [/QUOTE]
