I agree with about everything Mark Roberts said. It is indeed VERY useful in portrait mode but you WILL have to shit it off when using it in landscape mode for a while (say, you know you won't need it, just shut it off) otherwise you will AF exactly when you shouldn't have ;)
That said, I find 3 inconvenients with the BG attached: 1/ when I let the camera on my side, the grip gets in the way. Maybe I should do more fat to care of this but now it is a problem :D 2/ Weight is a bit too much when using a small lens like the 18-55 . Specially if you put batteries both in the camera and in the grip. 3/ the ML button is "cheapish" and no memory compensation button. Being accustomed to the SuperA/ProgramA with its Motor their is no way I could do without the D grip. ---------------------- Thibouille ---------------------- *ist-D,Z1,SFXn,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ...
