Nikon BL-6 Reviews

Fits and functions perfectly!

I don’t like fumbling with battery swaps when I’m in the middle of a shooting session. Without this cover, I have to take a minute to release the dead battery and attach the fresh one. By buying a separate cover, I can swap batteries in 5 seconds. This particular product is perfect. No flaws, worked perfectly right out of the box.

Purchased as a backup

I bought the battery chamber cover as a backup in the field. It is much easier to swap batteries in low light light while sitting in the marsh and not trying to swap batteries with only one cover.

I'm sorry, no, we do not carry the battery cover for the D850, you would need to contact Nikon directly.

question

Is this compatible with Nikon MB-D17 battery grip for Nikon D500?

question

What is the difference between the BL-6 and the BL-5? What is the difference between the EL18a and the el18b battery?
Asked by: Bruce
The BL-6 is for the Nikon D5/D4s/D4. The BL-5 is for use with the Nikon D500 (MB-D17 grip) or Nikon D850 (MB-D18 grip) and I believe a few others. They are not compatible with eachother.
