Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will it work with Nikon D800E?

A: Sorry, no, it will not. Have no fear however for you can use this Vello grip: Vello BG-N7 Battery Grip for Nikon D810, D810A, D800 & D800E B&H # VEBGN7.

Q: 2. Can i use one battery on the grip and none on the camera body to make easier to change battery while on tripod? Or the use of the battery on the camera body is obligatory?

A: Just checked this out on my D600. You can use the camera with just a battery in the grip. All normal camera functions seemed to work the same as having a battery in the camera body. Hope this helps.

Q: 3. Can you mount the Battery grip to a tripod in the vertical and horizontal position?

A: Yes, I have a studio for 11 years. I use it on my tripod in both horizontal and vertical positions for about 4 years. However I dont move it outside the studio nor does it get bounced around so I dont weaken it.

Q: 4. Does this bracket attach with screws at the upper left hand side where the camera strap attaches?

A: The Sunwayfoto PNL-Z8G L-Bracket for Nikon Z8 with Battery Grip has a screw opening at the top left where you can attach an arm to hold an accessory, as shown in this photo. https://bhpho.to/3YgmLnW

Q: 5. Does the Kirk PZ-151 plate fit on this grip? This is not the L model, but designed for the D600/D610.

A: I think you should order thr Kirk PZ-152 which should fit with Battery Grip.

Q: 6. will this clear tether cables while locked in portrait orientation?

A: Yes. You may slide the Really Right Stuff L-Plate for Nikon Z8 with Battery Grip away from the camera body so there is space between the vertical riser and the side of the camera. By doing so, you would have room between the camera and the L-Plate for tether cables when using the Really Right Stuff L-Plate for Nikon Z8 with Battery Grip in the vertical (portrait) orientation.

Q: 7. will this fit my Nikon D7000?

A: Yes

Q: 8. Will this battery grip fit the D780?

A: The Vello Bg-15-2 is only compatible with the Nikon d-750

Q: 9. 9 fps with this grip?

A: No, according to Nikon Rumors.

Q: 10. If you set up the battery order usage in the camera menu so that the camera battery is consumed first, it is then necessary to return to the menu after the camera battery is exhausted to engage the Vello grip battery, or will this happen automatically?

A: It's automatic.

While it is still early days. the Vello battery grip is working as expected, fits perfectly, and can use the higher capacity batteries and BL-5 battery cap exactly as it should. I have purchased other Vello battery grips in the past and have never had any issues.

I unfortunately ordered mine just days before it went on sale, but even at regular price, this grip is excellent.� It functions and looks just as good as the Nikon counterpart, as has been my experience with all of the Vello grips I've used with my cameras.�

The only thing I haven't tested is use of the EN-EL18 battery and cap, which I'm fine not bothering with; if I need faster CHF shooting, I'll use my D500.�

All in all, if you just want a grip extension and the ability to shoot additional photos, save a few hundred dollars for a bag and batteries by buying this over the OEM part.

I have waited for the Vello, because it is exactly the same as Nikon's and only $99. It is a great value.

I have been extremely satisfied with this battery grip for my Nikon D850. It has a high quality feel to it, fits perfect, and works without a hitch. Highly recommend.

This grip looks and feels exactly like a Nikon grip at a fraction of the price. It's identical in every single way. I do not know if there is any difference in motor drive speed using the Vello compared to the Nikon.

I have only tested it so far, but it works as it should. It seems to duplicate all the functions of the Nikon brand and on sale it cost only 15% of the list price of the Nikon!

Everything you need in a vertical grip without the cost of a Nikon grip, I purchased mine for the added weight of the extra battery to reduce camera shake.

This grip is one quarter the price of the Nikon. It feels good, fits tightly and appears to do what it is supposed to (used only on limited basis so far). Be sure to read the short instruction manual before using. The shutter button lock must be in the locked position before using, or the shutter button won't activate..
