I should have updated the group earlier but better late than never.
The MieKe grip for the D800 works great and after ~2 weeks I've had no problems with it at all. It gives the camera a much larger and solid feel. The grip itself fits nicely on the D800 body and steadies the camera as a grip should. The buttons feel great and I didn't get the loose feeling that was reported for the other model of D800 grip. I also like that the metal tightening ring does not rattle like my Zeikos D7000 grip. All in all, I'm very pleased with my purchase and the $350 I saved compared to the Nikon grip makes this grip all the nicer.
Here are some photos of the grip along with the box. Interestingly, the box lists the grip as a "D800S" grip. I wonder if we should alert NikonRumors?![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
