Yeah, but the Mz-S grip needed you to take the batteries out of the body. The point of the grip for the *istD is that you double your shoot time. I can see why you like the extra stability of something more firmly clamped, but I prefer this way.
Another thing, the hand mould on the grip for vertical shooting is much better contoured for my hands - its really nice. Its just a shame it doesn't fit in my more portable camera bags when mounted on the camera. For this reason I probably wont use it a lot. > -----Original Message----- > From: Ryan K.
