Thanks for everyone's input on the 3rd party battery grips. After weighing many (not all) of your posts, I will order an OEM grip for my week old K5. My main reason for getting a battery grip is if I should ever be in a spot where all I had access to were AA batteries, this would be a bacon saver. I really don't want to hose up the best camera I've ever owned....and the posts here give me serious doubts as to the safety of the knockoffs. Update 10/17/12 - Still haven't bothered to buy a battery grip. I had my K-5 firing away for 100s of shots and the battery has help up just fine. Did buy a spare battery, just in case. Am still very happy with this camera.
