I bought this for my Nikon D610. It works great, very sturdy. It is very easy to use when going to vertical shots. A little heavy, but that’s expected. I have zero complaints.

Recibo el paquete perfectamente envuelto y lo primero que veo es que es un producto made in china, me sorprende pues los productos Nikon son made in Tailandia o made in Japón. El producto tiene la calidad que me espero, conecta perfectamente con mi d610 y el tacto se nota que es muy bueno y los botones y ruletas funcionan correctamente y tiene un buen tacto.Estuve tentado de comprar los clónicos pues la diferencia de precio es bastante grande pero he podido permitirme este producto y estoy contento de haberlo hecho.

perfect. got it on sale. couldn't be happier. offbrands that I ve tried do work for most part, but there will be errors during high frame continuous shooting and frequent chimping . not good for professional sessions.

Seems very solid. I had a knockoff battery powerpack for my D7000. I made the plunge and bought the real thing when I upgraded to the D610. A couple of things that were immediately noticeable were:1. The real thing feels more solid. The knockoff feels solid, like it's made from strong plastic, but there's a tiny bit of give when one squeezes the knockoff that indicates the knockoff is plastic. The real deal is more solid, presumably because its made from magnesium, which is a metal and doesn't deform slightly under pressure. When I grab the real deal, it feels more solid, and I'm a little more confident of my grip because it's not deforming/giving under my fingers in a noticeable way.2. The seam between the camera and the battery pack is tighter with the 'real deal.' Again this makes me feel a little more confident of the Nikon branded unit. This might be another example of the performance of magnesium vs plastic, but the mating feels tighter and the seam is more even. When I grab the Nikon grip it feels like it is 'one' with the camera. When I grab the plastic grip on my D7000, It doesn't quite feel like a single entity. Maybe because the plastic has a little more give it feels more like like two pieces bolted together.3. The camera controls work great on both units . . . no complaints there.Note that these differences are slight. I didn't have any complaints about the third party version of this until I held the D7000 with third party grip alongside the D610 with Nikon grip. And even now, I still like the third party grip considering what I paid for it. But the Nikon grip is a step up. For me it was worth the premium.

On oublie vite le poids supplémentaire. Confort de prise en main global du reflex, tant en mode horizontal que vertical. Confort et sérénité quand à la ressource en énergie. Permet de faire fonctionner le boitier avec des piles bâton... au fin fond de l'inde, sans électricité ... ça rassure!

I have a meike D600 knockoff grip (it is a rename XTNG600) for about a year. To be frank not sure why this is worth 3-4x the cost. I don't think metal cost 3-4x the cost of plastic in a product like this. I am looking at both chassis and everything looks the same. The buttons are the same, the chassis are the same thickness but the D14 is a thin metal, the battery holder is the same, yes both plastic, not metal. One screw hold together the tripod mound inside maybe a tad different. All in all XTNG600 has the exact same mold as the MB-14 and the only different is the thin metal body. So I won't doubt the same factory made both of these.Why did I get this version when I already have a cheap battery grip?I went hiking and all of the sudden it rain hard for an hour. I didn' t have a camera bad or anything and the D600 and the battery grip got soak. It worked in the rain until the lens was too foggy to see. So when I got home there were water (condenstion) in the main body battery grip teh LCD was fogged up and the viewfidner too. The D600 won't turn off, and the electronic was going hay-wire. Found out the knock-grip was doing something to it. I coun;d take a photo with the knock-off grip. So I ordered a new mb-14. Funny after 2-3 days the LCD and viewfinder stopped fogging up. The day I got this battery grip the knock-off started to work again like 3-4.5 day after the rain.Why did I keep this?People say the knockoff is a little lose, when mounted. I find it not true, it is as tight. The weird thing is the plastic knockoff you can squeeze and you hear it sound lose and flex. So I just liked the solid metal feel and decide to keep it. Also the price has dropped since it was first release, so I am ok with the price/value/ performance ratio. So if you have a cheap knockoff and it works, then there is no need to get this unless you like the harder metal, which I do. 3.5 stars so I rounded up.

Ive bought battery grips for all the nikon cameras I've owned over the years (apart from the pro bodies of course, they don't need them!) And I've always found them an invaluable add on. Mainly because it allows me to use aa batteries which are easily and readily available. The fit and finish is an exact match with the camera body, verrrry slight movement but really you'd have to be a pedant for it to bother you. A good thing about the d600 or any other "prosumer" body ( I hate that word. I use my d600 professionally and it is more than capable of delivering the goods. Great camera) is that with the grip removed you've got a nice light and compact body, its a modular system. With the grip attached you obviously gain weight and bulk but its not dramatically heavier. All the function buttons are customisable like on the body, and you can even assign the batteries in the grip to be used first. I found my 2000mah duracell rechargeable batteries lasted me one or two sessions, thats around 500 raw files. You can leave the standard camera battery inside the body and use it as a kind of reserve. I haven't had to resort to it yet though. As with all nikon stuff its very well made. It's expensive but its a tool so I can't really skimp on it. If you're considering an after market unit just remember folks buy cheap buy twice. Don't mess about you bought yourself a great body don't skimp now! Yes I know its overpriced but really, it won't damage your camera and it'll always work. My stuff gets A LOT of work and I only review things I think are good. This is a fine bit of equipment. Thanks folks!

Ich habe den Nikon Original MB-D14 Batteriegriff mit dem vermutlich besten Nachbau (Minadax Magnesium) verglichen.Der Originalgriff MB-D14 'verlängert' die Kamera wirklich passgenau und sitzt perfekt – die Kamera liegt entschieden besser in der Hand.Das Original vermittelt (im Vergleich zum Minadax-Griff) einen deutlich wertigeren Eindruck in Bezug auf Verarbeitung, Stabilität und die Bedienelemente. Besonders die Stellräder sind wesentlich griffiger und laufen satt und präzise, wie an der Kamera selbst.Eine Nikon D600 ist für 7-9 Volt ausgelegt – der MB-D14 hat daher einen Batterieträger für sechs AA-Batterien, also max. 9 Volt (der Akku hat 7 Volt).Der Minadax-Griff kommt mit einem Batterieträger für acht (ja, 8 !!!!!!!!) AA-Batterien mit insgesamt 12 Volt ?!! ( – ob der Minadax-Griff mit acht Batterien ein D600-Killer ist, habe ich lieber nicht ausprobiert).Nur mit Akku betrieben ist der Minadax (sicher auch ohne 'Magnesium') eine ordentliche und preiswerte Alternative zum Original.Meine Wahl fiel dennoch eindeutig auf den perfekteren Original Nikon MB-D14.

People have different sized hands and ways of holding cameras. I have medium sized hands and skinny fingers, and I prefer portrait orientation, so this grip was a must as soon as I got a D600. The two different battery modules (AA, and lithium rechargeable) are excellent and rugged and seem not likely to break soon, and the grippy rubber is a joy to hold. The 1/4-20 screw actuated by a front and rear operated wheel is well recessed, and strongly and firmly attaches the camera to the grip without play. Its weight is perfect for balancing the camera in vertical mode. I like the button locations and the handy recess to store the contact cover under the grip. The only thing missing is a strap lug on the button end for those of us who want the camera to hang in portrait mode - like a Pentax 67 might.I put camera and grip on a tripod and don't see any excess play. The option of being able to power the camera with AAs in case and not have to worry about bringing a charger along is a huge plus for me. I would definitely buy this again - it makes the smallish D600 just right in the heft department, and brings it all to hand so securely that I never feel I might drop the camera.
