This item had been on back order. It was well worth the wait. B&H was prompt in notifying me when the item was replenished. This battery grip is an excellent camera option. Easy to install. Works like a charm.

Great Quality

Yes, the “real thing” is a little pricey but the quality is terrific. I’m glad I bought it and, of course, B&H service and prices are first rate.

Nice tight fit. D500 looks more professional. All the controls you need to shoot upright. Comfortable in the hands.best upgrade I've ever done.

I haven't used this much so far. I expect it to work well. It is a replacement for an MB-D17 that went for a partial swim so I am already familiar with the product.

Great grip for D500

By Douglas

So I I've been shooting with my D500 for a little over a year now. No grip....just an RRS L bracket. About 2 weeks ago I purchased the Nikon grip with Kirk L bracket from B&H,and am getting used to it. I haven't had a lot of opportunities recently), but have had a few hummingbird, quail, and bunnies. So far, I like it a lot, and plan on keeping it on the camera. I evaluated using a non-Nikon grip but in the end decided to stay with OEM. GREAT service by B&H as always.

Love this battery pack and vertical grip. I take a lot of vertical shoes so it’s much more comfortable to hold the D500 with it attached. Also you can put an extra battery in it so that’s great!
