Digital camera reviews of Pentax D-BG4 Battery Grip for Pentax K-7 Digital SLR (Retail Packaging)

Digital camera Review: A good add-on that supports standard batteries.
Summary: 4 Stars

I mainly purchased this so I could continue using the camera even if the normal (special) batteries became hard to get, since it can handle either AA or the special batteries. So far it has worked well. The extra controls are very handy when using the vertical orientation, but the extra switch will not turn on the camera, it only enables the extra set of controls. The total bulk is a bit bigger, but the handling is still good. I have only had a few longer shooting sessions so far, but there has been no sign of running out of "juice" when using both battery sets. Unlike several other brands, this one does not displace the normal camera battery when attached. That makes changing the normal camera battery a bit more involved (but still not hard) but reduces the extra bulk.
