[QUOTE="STM, post: 128233, member: 12827"] I have heard both good and bad reviews of 3rd party battery packs vs Nikon but head to head, most seem to fall way short of the Nikon, especially in quality and strength of construction. The battery pack for my D700 is metal not plastic and it never leaves the bottom of my camera except when I use my panoramic attachment for my tripod and only then because the extra length does not allow me to align the lens with the pivot axis of the attachment. I am used to F2's and FE-2's with motors and my F4 so for me, the extra heft and size of the D700 with the battery pack feels very natural for me. [/QUOTE]
