When near a power outlet it's a great way to save using the battery.

Good product for me.

I like this adapter because it allows me to connect my camera to AC not have to worry about running the battery down. I take wildlife and astronomy pictures on my land so the camera can be on for quite awhile sometimes and this helps.

Plug in power works great

Must also buy the EH-5b AC adapter. Worked great for my Nikon D5200 which has a rubber cover where the cord can come through from the battery compartment. Gave my battery time to recharge during the wedding ceremony. We were ready to go at the reception!

Good product and worth the money. I was looking for this adapter and most that are available are NOT Nikon, so I was pleased to find this Nikon product. Works very well with the camera. Much better to have this plugged in instead of having to keep charging batteries.

Excellent Adapter!

Because several Nikon cameras do not have a power input, this adapter is necessary in order to power cameras that use the EN-EL14 battery. It works perfectly.

It Fits

This device is an adaptor to connect and external power supply to a Nikon camera. After unfurling the amazingly folded instruction sheet written in many languages, I discovered a secret access panel that can be removed to allow the power cord from the adaptor to exit the camera while keeping the battery door shut. This device requires a separate power supply which is currently out of stock at B&H and is on back order so I don't know yet how the device will work with my camera. I'm standing by for delivery of the power supply unit.

Highly recommend

The Nikon power supply arrived quickly, safely packaged and pristine here in CA. I had also called to inquire about a couple of other items we need and the staff person was very helpful. We are very happy with purchase and expect to do business with this company again.

question

Does this (EP-5A Power Supply Connector for D3100 by Nikon) also work with my Nikon P7000? and what kind of socket does it have that I would need to feed from a power supply?
Asked by: Anonymous
This EP-5a Power supply is compatible with the P7000, but also requires the Nikon EH-5b ac adapter to plug into a standard USA type electrical outlet. See the link below for details:http://bhpho.to/IqApM8

question

Is this connector compatible with the Nikon D 700?

This connector will not be compatible with your Nikon D700. You would need the Nikon EP-5B Power Supply Connector for Select Nikon Cameras. Also the Nikon EH-5b AC Adapter for Various Nikon Digital Cameras.
