Vertical Battery Grip Holder for Pentax K10D DX-FBH - (eBay item 170159794531 end time Oct-24-07 00:50:10 PDT)

I really like the idea of two shutter releases.

TIA!/Scottax1

Well, the Pentax grip is only $150 (before $25 rebate) and gives you a second set of control wheels, extra "green" button and Ev lock. So not sure I'd even bother with this 3rd party grip.

But I guess if you want two extra shutter releases, go for it!

I have the pentax grip. It works well and I am happy with it but I do like the idea of being able to shoot left handed in vertical mode with that grip. Just something to think about

I wouldnt go for that... I am assuming its not weather sealed either. The k10d grip is not perfect though, the lack of AF button is the biggest thron in my side. if they are going to make a grip then it needs to have all the controls that the normal grip has.
