The DX grip is NOT a counterfeit product because it's not being sold as an original Pentax grip. It only says "For Pentax" on the box. For all intents and purposes, it's just a copy made of slightly inferior materials and with less functionality (no sealing). I'm perfectly happy with my copy because I needed a shutter button in a vertical orientation, but did not want to spend 250 euros for just a button. I don't feel guilty at all because I have spent 10,000's of euros in original Pentax gear, but 260 euros for a grip is just plain ridiculous. I'd rather buy a Pentax K-x for a "few"euros more!
