        Comments about D-BG3 Battery Grip for Pentax K200D SLR Digital Camera:

        Although it adds some weight to the camera (especially with batteries installed) the grip gives the photographer better grip in portrait orientation. The grip also bulks up the entire camera a little, providing better stability in your hands. The extra power comes in handy for shots as well.

        Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

          Comments about D-BG3 Battery Grip for Pentax K200D SLR Digital Camera:

          Love the grip. Nice to have the shutter release button for vertical shots. Seemed a little heavy at first, but balances nicely on a camera strap. I especially like that I can go out on extended hikes and take over 1300 photos with the batteries in the camera and in the grip. Well worth the price for this item.
