| Latest Review Posted | Pentax Battery Grip D-BG5 for K-3 / K-3 II
Built quality is Pentax standard, no surprises there. This grip is built like a tank.
Good ergonomics, I love the safety latch on the battery door (as well as on the camera), but the battery holder has no safety pin, so if the battery door is open the holder and battery will fall out, unless your hand is in the way.
The grip balances the camera very well, I now love shooting my DA* 300/4.
Maybe it's just me, but I've been struggling every time to get this grip off the camera, in order to remove and recharge the camera battery. I've finally figured out a perfect portable accessory to help me do that on the go, since it is absolutely impossible to unscrew it using only my fingers.
All in all, a must have accessory |
