The Meike MK3100 Battery Grip arrived today. I am not too keen on chinese knockoffs, but since Nikon didn't make one, I didn't have a lot of choice.
I took a few snaps of the grip installed along with an after market battery. Everything costs less than $36.00.
You may notice the surgery on the connector cover. I cut the upper right corner off so that all of the other connectors are sealed-ish.
The tip on the non-nikon battery is to put the Nikon battery in FIRST. Then install the other battery. Everything works like a charm.
Since my joints just don't like being twisted to get the portrait shots, this is a lot more comfortable now.
Enjoy.
