Pentax BG2 gripStrengths: Quality build, good ergonimics, useful design Weakness: Little pricy, requires removal to access battery in camera I bought this grip a couple of weeks ago for my new K10D SLR. The only gripe I have for the design is that it has to be removed for battery access. Options to use either the battery in this grip or the one in the camera is great, also like the Pentax remote storage compartment. The K10D battery use is already very good, and this grip with the extra battery makes it great. As always, very good...

Excellent battery grip at great priceStrengths: Good fit with the body. Provides excellent grip in landscape frame Build quality weatherproof like k10d body Weakness: Poor vertical grip in portrait frame somewhat flimsy feel of the shutter, dials and buttons I purchased this grip right after I got k10d. I have big hand, so k10d was still small to hold. Build quality is excellent. Other makers sells vertical grip at somewhat jacked-up price. Pentax provides it at reasonable price. It provides same weatherproof sealing as k10d does. When I install the grip on K10d, it was much more comfortable to hold in normal position. However, when I hold the camera...

Pentax Battery Grip BG-2Strengths: could'nt be happier with the grip.It really completes my K10 which I have enjoyed since last December.My little finger now has a place to rest.The grip really helps in stabilizing the camera in my hand.An added plus to the already built in system in the Weakness: A bit too big, if you consider using your camera with the kit 18-55 lens The battery grip for the K10D is helpful for some situations. It holds a back-up battery that is actually functional for the camera without being swapped out with the main battery, thus doubling your battery time. You do have to remove it, however, to change the main camera battery. The storage space inside the grip also holds a second SD card. I would have given a 5 star rating if this card was...

Pentax D-BG2 Battery Grip for K10DStrengths: BP2 provides exllent hand grip with vertical shutter release, exposure dials, and green mode button. In addition, you can store extra SD memory card, D-LI50 Li-Ion battery and infrared wireless remote Weakness: In order to charge the main battery in K10D SLR Camera, you need to remove this BG2 Grip. With K10D SLR camera, I had to buy bigger camera bag. Great design to complete PENTAX K10D SLR CAMERA. It gives wonderful hand grip from the vertical with exposure dials control and green mode button. Good for back-up battery storage which can be exchanged electronically through the K10D SLR Camera. Also, it let you store extra memory card, wireless remote. It would be nicer if extra memory card in storage was functional. Overall this is a nice... Advertisement

Good grip, excellent price
Strengths: Compliments K10D perfectly Works as it should without complications Stores an extra SD memory card
Weakness: Must remove from body to charge the battery
This is my type of equipment; does what it should do without adding complications or issues. It's an excellent addition to my K10D. Especially useful for the times you want to shoot vertical. It has a nice feel to it and mates (and looks good) on the K10D camera. The grip also has a space to hold an extra SD memory card which is a nice touch. I might not want to spend $200 on this accessory, but...
