The most difficult part of installing this product is removing the battery cover from the camera. Be very careful and patient, and do not force the parts apart. That said, the rest of the installation is very easy and you will be rewarded with two batteries instead of simply one. It is nice that you can just press a button on the back of the power pack to find out how much mattery power remains. With my D800e I had to go into the camera menu for the information and this is so much easier. The charging port is beneath the power information button and it is a nice feature that eliminates having to remove the batteries every time they need to be recharged. There is a similar port on the side of the camera which I initially attempted to employ for charging. After trying ...

Firstly, I am going to get this out of the way: Nikon really should have held off on the release of the Z 7/6 to provide a body that would allow addition of a functional battery/vertical grip. That is why I'm giving this battery grip a three instead of a four star rating.Now, the good stuff is actually worthwhile. I love the Z 6. I t has a great user interface. It is very intuitive, especially if you're familiar with Nikon cameras. My biggest issue with it is that even though it feels good in the hand, it is a bit short and too light for some lens setups.The battery grip adds shooting time between needing to swap batteries, gives a more positive feel at the grip as it allows the entire hand to get a purchase on the grip, and the extra weight feels good.

I know some people prefer lighter camera setups.If you are not going to be shooting for long sessions, don't like extra weight and the lack of vertical function on this grip is an absolute deal breaker for you, then don't bother. If you feel that the need for extra battery life and a better grip on your Z camera would be useful, this is an acceptable addition.

Another reason I like to consider this grip is because the added palm support for large lens such as 24-70 f2.8 Z. I don't particularly miss vertical shutter release button as on MB-D10 (D700); I don't have the battery grip for D750 to compare since I like to keep D750 kit compact, but MB-D10 / D700 combo does not feel the same as the camera that was designed with vertical grip, such as F5 film camera. It feels lot more intuitive to use vertical button / directional pad on F5 than with MB-D10 / D700. I fumbled a lot searching vertical button / joy-stick on MB-D10/D700 than with F5. Therefore I don't quite miss that function on vertical grip. Size of MB-N10 / Z6 is still compact, I am fine with keeping my fingers on camera's shutter release / joy-stick and just rotate 90 degrees to take the shots. Overall, I like this grip. I can see the need for this grip with larger native or adapted lens, such as 24-70 and 70-200 f2.8, or extensive video recording for added battery capacity; When I attach Z6 to MixPre-3 ii for video recording I actually prefer to have battery grip in between to firmly hold the camera. Also I can swap out battery from the side instead of from bottom of Z6. It might be an after thought for this design after Z6 / Z7 (no vertical buttons). It helps if you need larger gripping handle and 2nd battery.

I recently bought a Z7 because Nikon has been slacking on getting new firmware out for DSLR cameras, namely promised updates for the D850. So far, I’m loving the platform, and this battery pack only adds to it. I have fairly meaty paws, so to me, without the battery pack, the camera is too small and poorly balanced, especially if saddled with front-heavy F-mount lenses.Many have been bashing it for its lack of controls and such, but it was not designed with that purpose or function in mind. Product descriptions exist for a reason.??The only complaint I have about this product is the battery compartment doors. They are very cheaply made, feel wobbly, and actually pop off with no difficulty and occasionally by accident. This may be by design to prevent them from ...

They are very cheaply made, feel wobbly, and actually pop off with no difficulty and occasionally by accident. This may be by design to prevent them from being a part that breaks off easily, but this could lead to this being a part that wears out and gets lost quickly. Time will tell, I suppose.
I have two of these battery packs, one used on my Z6 and the other on my Z7. Overall, this battery extender is very well made and seems quite durable. The metal body feels nice and strong and the fit to both cameras is excellent. I do not have any play on the Z6 or the Z7. Ive had them both for quite some time, theyve both been on several trips and used extensively in a few shoots, and they remain solid with no issues at all. My primary reason for purchasing these was to make the camera larger as I shoot with a D5, D850 (with grip) and D500 (with grip), so I am used to a larger camera in the hand. When I added on the mirrorless bodies to my collection, I needed a solution to make the camera feel right in my hands. These did the trick! I knew I was not getting an ...

When I added on the mirrorless bodies to my collection, I needed a solution to make the camera feel right in my hands. These did the trick! I knew I was not getting an additional shutter release or any other controls, just the ability to have two batteries on board. If you are looking for more functionality, Id wait for future grips to be released. I like the fact it had two LED indicators, one for each battery, so aI can quickly see the remaining charge. The integrated USB-C port allows you to charge the batteries while they are in the battery pack, a great feature. Note, with this ability, you will need to use the EH-7P charger. This comes with the Z7, but not theZ6 and you would need to purchase it separately. Another nice thing about this battery pack is the ability to seamlessly manage two batteries - meaning you can keep the camera on and working while swapping out one of the batteries. I dont do video, but I imagine if I did, and this was on a tripod, this would be a very useful feature. Note, I have used both the in-pack charging and hot swapping - they work flawlessly. I dont really have much negative to say really. They looks a bit like an afterthought when installed on the cameras. Its a little boxy and has a smooth metal texture while the cameras are rubberized and textured. Not really a big deal. It does add some weight to the camera as well, but that is to be expected.
I purchased this due to the limited battery life of mirrorless cameras. I've rarely used it, and will sell it. It's more convenient to have a light, less bulky camera during shoots. That's one of the main reasons I went to mirrorless, so I could feel unencumbered by camera weight. I simply keep a spare battery with me. With that said, I still haven't gone through a full battery on any of my longer shoots. For the money, I wish I just purchased another battery and saved the change. The product is built well. It's just overkill.
The MB-N10 successfully provides an on-camera, two battery option/accessory for more frames, with less chance of running out of power at a crucial moment. Mission accomplished on that front. Would it have been more desirable as a full-fledged battery grip with controls for vertical shooting? Yes! Would it have been well-worth the extra cost to provide that functionality? Another resounding yes! Nikon, please listen.As it is, though, it succeeds wonderfully as a solid, power source for extra frames and as a comfortable, extended grip. It provides a more secure hold for the Nikon Z7 and Z6...especially with a longer, heavier lens attached.Nothing fancy but well-made. It does the job.ps- And, yes, I immediately covered the Nikon logo up front with black, textured ...

The GoodThis battery extender is very well made. Lots of metal, better battery doors than on the camera bodies, solid feel. It also has two LED bargraph battery charge meters so you can see the available charge of each battery while the camera's battery icon only shows you the battery presently powering the camera. In addition it has a USB charging inlet identical to the one on the camera. The external charger is provided with the Z7 camera, but not the Z6. So to take advantage of in pack charging you'll need to purchase the charger if you don't already own one.The primary benefit of the Multi-Battery power pack is it will seamlessly manage two batteries, their charging and their selection to power the camera. If you are on a long shoot you'll have less anxiety ... MoreThe GoodThis battery extender is very well made. Lots of metal, better battery doors than on the camera bodies, solid feel.

If you are on a long shoot you'll have less anxiety about running out of battery power at a critical moment. And you can reduce the amount of time you check your battery level. Furthermore it'll reduce wear and tear on batteries and compartment doors since it will reduce or eliminate the need to physically swap batteries.The BadI found the pack adds a significant amount of weight to the camera, actually unbalancing it even when using a long lens such as the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 zooms. I had to burn extra muscle power to keep the camera viewfinder from tipping down unless I held the lens very close to the camera body. Much more tedious on a long continuous shoot.The power pack is heavy because it needs to dissipate waste heat from the built-in USB 5VDC switch mode power supply used to step up the voltage to charge the batteries.The UglyThe MB-N10 seems like an afterthought of the Nikon team that designed the Z6/7 cameras. There are no provisions for accessory features as the camera bodies do not have the additional electrical contacts used in most other Nikon DSLR's for their accessory battery handles. Furthermore, in order to mount the power pack you have to remove the camera body battery door. The hinge pins of the door are very fragile. It unhinges at a specific angle, one side at a time and on some bodies may be too tight to safely remove. The door on my Z6 was removable but required experimentation. The door on my Z7 broke off. The plastic hinge pins are very fragile. And replacement covers for the Z6/7 are hard to find and are pricey. Assume, once installed you will not be removing the power pack even though the dual thumb wheels make it easy to mount and dismount it.For twice the battery weight you do not get twice the run time. Why? Because the additional electronics in the power pack, especially the battery swapping circuitry consume some if it.I had to ask myself, why bother with it at all? I usually have sufficient time to swap out the camera body battery during a shoot. And if I need continuous run time I'd opt for an AC battery eliminator with the Nikon dummy battery and/or an external battery pack that can be kept warm when shooting outdoors in very cold weather.So, unless you have an unusual need for an automatic battery swap without loss of power, I cannot recommend this fix for the reduced run time of the Z series cameras.
I have been using cameras with battery grips my entire career going back to the early 1990’s. Every camera grip I have ever had had a shutter button on the grip so that you didn’t have to turn your wrist over to take portrait oriented images. This grip is the exception. It has battery doors on both sides of the grip and no camera controls at all.Granted, this is my fault for not doing the research. I was hesitant going mirrorless in the first place and frankly the only reason I did is for the silent shutter. I shoot music recording sessions on occasion and I can’t make a sound for obvious reasons.I pre-ordered the grip (which is a first for me again) and waited a few weeks for it to come in. When I opened the box for the first time I was extremely disappointed. ... MoreI have been using cameras with battery grips my entire career going back to the early 1990’s.

Context: I've owned or shot extensively extensively, with grips, D90, D300S, D7000, D7100, D7200, D700, D800, D800E, D810, D850, D750, D3S, D4, D5, Z7, Z7 II. This is, by far, the worst Nikon product I've ever purchased. Not only is it a grip without buttons, not only does it power A=B but not B=A, not only does it only have 3 power lights/bars instead of 4 like every other Nikon product, not only does it not take a big battery, it won't even work with Nikon's own AC power adaptors...which my Z7 and Z6 II verifiably work with. An astoundingly bad product. The only two things this does even marginally well: give more surface to hold onto (my pinky finger has a place to go instead of falling off the bottom of the camera), and it holds 2 batteries.
