Nikon MB-N11 Reviews

what were they thinking

I purchased this unit with a z7 II. Come to find out that to install it on the camera requires the removal of the little battery door on the camera body. I could picture myself easily losing the little door. One of my Pentax cameras has a battery grip that attaches in the same way but has a slot in the grip to accommodate the battery door on the body. Back it goes.

Great addition for the Z6ii

Love this battery pack and vertical grip. Having the extra battery is great for long shoots and having the vertical grip makes shooting so much easier. In the past for other Nikons, I have purchased a third-party battery pack and grip, but they always had some sort of issue. I'm glad that I went with the Nikon. I wish Nikon would bundle the grips with the Z6-Z8 camera series.

Innovative

A bit on the pricey side but worth the innovation. You can now replace both batteries without unscrewing the grip entirely, a welcomed change. It works well and feels well built. It will stay on my Z camera because these mirrorless cameras are too small for me to hold properly without a grip.

Balances the Z6ii with Zoom Lens

By Anthony
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-02-26

I find that the MB-N11 nicely balances the Z6ii with my 24-120 f4 lens. Without this battery pack my right hand little finger is not in a position to grip the body/lens combination. That caused me to largely try to hold the body with only two fingers while keeping my index finger free to operate the controls. With that much weight and torque, I found a two finger grip very uncomfortable. This battery pack solves the problem. It also adds the same balanced feel while holding the camera in portrait orientation.

Essential Addition

By Muhammad Yusuf

Gives the camera a better grip and balance. And of course uninterrupted shooting with being able to hotswap batteries.

Overpriced and Heavy

By Jeff
Rated 2 out of 5
Date: 2023-06-11

Does the job, but it's obscenely overpriced and disappointingly heavy. It adds substantial weight to the camera. Other grips made by Vello and Meike for other Nikon bodies are much cheaper and lighter. The battery door is somewhat flimsy and would break easily if you forced it the wrong way.

I've always been a Grip Guy, so I knew I had to have the MB-N11 when I purchased the Nikon Z7II. It works perfectly. It's light weight and the controls make shooting vertically a breeze. If you're a grip guy like me, get this one to add to your collection. Get beyond the cost and look at it as a means for better photography. I love mine.

Is battery changing the same as on the previous Z grip, or does it use a "slide out" holder as with the D850 grip? Will it accept the larger EN-EL18 or only two small batteries?
Asked by: Yasha
The grip has a removable tray that fits two EL15 batteries and loads in from the end, and locks into place. The end cap is hinged like the MBN-10 and closes the tray and batteries in. The left-side battery, like the MBN-10, drains first, and can be swapped without removing the tray (there is a latch to hold the tray into the grip, and a latch on the tray itself to retain that battery).

How do you know which battery to swap?
Asked by: David
You can only hot-swap the A battery while the camera is still on. There's a separate lever to remove only the A battery instead of both batteries at the same time.
