 once you go batgrip you never go back December 24, 2008
xan (Kamuela, Hi United States)
Although I've never quantifiable measured number of exposures or time difference between a single battery and using the bat/grip. It feels like 3 to 4 times as much power before I need to change out the batteries. The extra weight also feels good on the camera. As far as the vertical controls, it would be nice if there was a menu/selector button on the grip so you could cycle through things. Also when I'm in vertical mode i tend to push the menu/selector button with my forehead and focal point runs all over the view finder. a little weird.
MB-200 for D 200 November 2, 2008
R. Zamora (San Diego CA)
Pro's-If your going to use the camera for a extended amount of time the grip come in very handy, Makes it easy to hold and although I can't prove it I feel as if the batteries last three times as long, Also if you use any large lens 70-200 or larger, the grip give you a more sense of "balance"
Cons-It adds plenty of weight around your neck, esp with the 70-200 attached. Overall I love it.
 Very good, but has a few of aspects that could be better August 8, 2008
M. Schwartz (Columbus, OH)
The battery grip is really good to have and I recommend it to anyone who does not have a "Professional-Level" SLR. However, there are a but things that bother me with the Nikon D200 Vertical Grip:
1. The auto-focus button on the grip is in a weird place compared to where it is on the camera. Therefore, it takes some time and a little practice to get used to it.
2. The vertical grip is not quite as comfortable feeling as the horizontal grip is. I blame this on Nikon not spending as much time on the vertical grip as they should/could have spent. The vertical grip for the Nikon D300 is noticeably more comfortable and attests to Nikon simply needing to spend some more time.
3. When looking at the grip, it does not seem as sturdy of a build or as sealed as the D200 camera is. This may or may not matter to you, but it is still a bothersome point to me.
With every product there will always be "bothersome points". Therefore, do not take my review as a make or break decision for you. You NEED this grip. Even if it is the worst thing in the world (which it is not by far) you would still need a vertical grip! So, buy the grip, you will love it. It will simply take some time and effort to get similar with. Go outside and shoot some pics for a few hours and you will probably have it down.
Plasticky but nice July 30, 2008
J. Dušek
In comparisment to the D200 body this grip feels very cheap and plasticky. Also the doors to the battery compartment look like they won't last long.
But those are the only bad things about this grip. It works as it should while adding an extra weight and better balance to the camera.
GREAT BATTERY PACK FOR NIKON D200 July 17, 2008
RDB (MISSISSIPPI)
Great battery pack. Easily fits on the bottom of your Nikon D200 and doesn't add that much weight. Be sure to have a couple of the big batteries as pictured in some of the photos. I get those b/c they last so much longer. This battery pack also has a place inside the vertical piece to hold the D200's battery cover/lid that is on the bottom of your camera. That way you don't lose that important piece while having this on your camera. It's all right there. It has been working well and is good-looking on the camera too. Also, [...] LLC delivered very quickly, and the price is the best I have found in my research.
