Review: Awesome product - with so many pluses - I've been drooling over the Mb-D10 for so long since I found out I will be out of the country for a long time and in remote locations. I wanted to be able pop-in AAs instead of getting all the different electrical convertors, etc. I originally thought I wouldn't get it since it was just too much after spending so much for my D300s. I was leaning towards getting the Zeikos ZE-NBG300 Battery Power Grip for less than a third of the Nikon. But then one day fortune smiled on me as I saw the Nikon Mb-D10 for sale used on desertcart. I snapped it up. And I couldn't be happier especially at the cheaper price. BUT now on to the actual review of the product: In case you wondering I don't have a big heavy lens. Just a small 50mm f/1.8. It fits perfectly on my D300s. The screw in dial doesn't jiggle up and down. It does have some play back and forth. The play in the screw is not loose and thus has to be by design. The bottom front of the battery grip (under the front of the camera lens when mounted) has the same subtle lip that provides the right amount of grip/edge for your finger tips to hang on to your camera with. This same grip exist on the side grip found on the camera... very nice detail. I can also use my left hand to grip the battery grip to further stabilize the camera. I don't have large hands but the grip is perfect for my pinky to grip when I'm shooting in normal mode. It really allowed my hand to spread out better. I was really surprised how much better it felt in my hand. One thing I read that had me lean toward the mb-d10 was another review that mentioned all the controls on the battery pack work EVEN when its empty. I tried this feature out as soon as I got it. And its awesome. A lot of people have commented on the hair trigger on the battery pack and it definitely is sensitive. Its not a hair trigger or something. Maybe because I read it over and over in other reviews, but I didn't find it that bad. I had no trouble just focusing without the shutter going off. Ive also read anoher review that said the ultra sensitivity is to prevent the camera from moving when the shutter button is pressed. I noitced that in my test shots. Overall I was able to adapt to the extra sensitivity within 1 or 2 tries. There's also a work around - the auto-focus button is about 15 degrees counter clockwise from the shutter button. So you could focus with your right thumb (which in my case was practically right next to it) and shoot with your right index finger. A lot of people commented on the extra weight... I couldn't DISAGREE more on the weight. Its really not that noticeable. For perspective I am into specing titanium and carbon parts on my sub-13 pound road bike, yet I didn't think it felt that much more heavier. It also didn't change the balance of the camera as much as I expected. It actually feels more stable. I've had it only about 3 hours so far and I was curious to take it out and hold it in my hand and it didn't feel that heavy. I was expecting something with more heft after all the reviews. Then I loaded it up with 8 AA batteries figuring that would be the worst case scenario and it didn't feel that much worse. I totally liked the recessed slot found on the battery grip, for the rubber cover from the bottom of the D300s. Thats a well thought design and I thinks it speaks to the thought put into the design as whole and the way it would work and integrate with the camera. The plastic cover for the leads found on the battery grip had no place to be put ... but I don't think its big deal (for me) since I don't plan on taking it off that much. One benefit I thought about that I noticed that none of the reviews touched on is the bottom of the camera is now shielded by the battery pack which is built with the same magnesium as the camera. The bottom is probably more water sealed than before. The menu selector toggle on the battery grip is in someways BETTER than the one on the camera since it a little toggle with square edges so you can actually pull back/ push forward on it. I find this much more easier to do than with the selector on the camera. The only improvement would be if the selector was closer to the shutter so I wouldn't have to rotate my thumb as much down to use it. But I think it would be hard to do given it would have to be right on the edge of the selector. The shutter button is well shielded. I think it would take a lot of effort to accidentally trigger it But it can happen. Luckily the button can be locked off along with all the other dials and the selector toggle. So thats about it... if you can afford it get it. Its worth it. If you can't, wait and wait and save up or eventually it'll be on sale used... especially after Christmas. Thanks. Review: Light Years Ahead of the Knock-Offs - I originally bought the Zeikos ZE-NBG300 Professional Multi-Power Pack for Nikon D300/300S & D700 because I wanted to save some money when I bought my D700 a while ago. I didn't think $250 was worth it. Boy was I wrong. The Zieikos had it's place and served me ok for months, but I had problems with the AA insert. When I tried to use AA batteries with the 3rd-party Zeiko, it flat out wouldn't work. All I would get was a blinking battery light. The camera would not turn on. I tried other batteries and lots more ideas to no avail. The regular Nikon battery did work in the other insert. After reading a few stories about the 3rd party grips shorting out people's equipment and costing lots more $$$ I got scared and said the heck with it. I acquired the Nikon version and it is night and day. The 3rd party Zeikos had no weather seal,it is plastic and flexes a bit, it had a gap in between the camera and unit and moved a bit, and general fit and finish was, well, you get what you pay for. The MB-D10 is a finally crafted piece of metal, quality rubber, and solid buttons. I could immediately feel the difference in weight when I removed it from the package. It butted up nicely and meshed perfectly with the D700. No more gap and nice tight fit. Beautiful fit and finish. More importantly now, my Sanyo NEW 1500 eneloop 4 Pack AAA Ni-MH Pre-Charged Rechargeable Batteries work great and give me 8 FPS, something I couldn't get with the Zeikos. I don't know how long they will last (how many shots I'll get) yet, time will tell. It's like a machine gun, wow does it fire fast. This will be great for sports, wildlife, etc. when I need a boost. Meanwhile, I will never skimp on a power source for my expensive hardware again. Just do it. I would highly recommend the Sanyo Eneloop Ni-MH batteries (see product link above) if you are going to try and use AA. I would not try a 3rd party brand to replace the Nikon battery. I tried this. It lasted for a month. Trust me, don't skimp on your power! There was some speculation of folks getting counterfeit grips at one time. It may have been from one or two seedy resellers, I don't know. I checked mine as soon as I got it against Nikon's web site (google Nikon MB-D10 counterfeit) and verified it's genuine. I had mine fulfilled by desertcart directly. Thanks desertcart. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000VDF5RO | | Amperage | 3 Amps | | Antenna Location | Indoor/Outdoor | | Battery Capacity | 2200 | | Battery Cell Composition | NiMH | | Battery Cell Type | NiMH | | Battery Weight | 40 Grams | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,607 in Camera Batteries | | Brand | Nikon | | Built-In Media | Grip | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 297 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00018208253593 | | Item Dimensions | 6 x 2 x 3 inches | | Item Type Name | Nikon multi power digital camera battery grip, full-size, black (25359). | | Item Weight | 14.24 ounces | | Manufacturer | Nikon | | Model Name | Nikon | | Model Number | 25359 | | Number of Batteries | 1 AA batteries required. | | Recommended Uses For Product | Indoor/Outdoor | | Reusability | Rechargeable | | UPC | 018208253593 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 8 Volts | | Warranty Description | 1 year Manufacturer's Warranty | ## Images ![Nikon MB-D10 Multi Power Battery Pack for Nikon D300 & D700 Digital SLR Cameras - Retail Packaging - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611DHF3dqeL.jpg) ![Nikon MB-D10 Multi Power Battery Pack for Nikon D300 & D700 Digital SLR Cameras - Retail Packaging - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717fyQRrVcS.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome product - with so many pluses *by S***C on November 11, 2009* I've been drooling over the Mb-D10 for so long since I found out I will be out of the country for a long time and in remote locations.

Thanks Amazon. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Big, heavy, functional, manly *by U***E on June 12, 2008* May 2012 UPDATE: I agree with others here that the shutter release button is too sensitive. In fact, it sometimes seems to fire multiple exposures uncommanded. Press the release, several exposures. Strange. And I never did get used to regripping the camera after turning it vertical. So I don't really use the extra set of controls at all. It's also somewhat of a pain to get to the first battery that's still inside the camera to charge it. It really would have been better to be able to fit two batteries into this external grip so I could slide the tray out and charge both batteries without having to unscrew the grip. This really comes into play when tripod mounted or in some other rig. Original review: The MB-D10 is really nice. Battery Options: It comes with two battery trays: one holds an EN-EL3e 7.4v 1500mAh lith-ion battery (same as what the camera holds). The other tray takes eight, AA batteries. Depending on which AA cells you install (Ni-MH, lithium, Ni-MN or alkaline) you can have 9.6 (NiMH at 2500mAh or more) or 12 volts. That voltage can crank the motor to its rated limit of 8 fps...at least until the buffer fills up and its frame rate slows while it writes to the card. You also tell the D300 via the menu which type of battery you have installed. It keeps track of charge for you based on the type. Very smart. The gray EN-EL3e is an update to the D70's black EN-EL3. The EN-EL3e can power the D70 but the older D70 batteries cannot power the D300. That's because the newer EN-EL3e has three contacts on it as opposed to the EN-EL3's two contacts. That extra contact allows the D300 to track the entire life of the EN-EL3e. Interestingly, the D70's older MH-18 charger can charge the newer EN-EL3e as can the D300's newer MH-18a charger. With an EN-EL3e in the camera body and another in the MB-D10, the D300 tracks and remembers how many shots you've taken on each battery, its percentage of charge remaining and even how many times the battery has been charged. When the battery as reached its design limit for recharges (years from now) the D300 will tell you. The grip will also take the larger 11.1v/1900mAh EN-EL4 or EN-EL4a battery [...] but you have to buy a BL-3 cover, which is really just the end of the battery trays mentioned above but without the tray. The cover clips to the end of the EN-EL4 and has a twist lock to hold and seal it into the MB-D10. [...] I bought the MB-D10 because I had purchased a second EN-EL3e knowing full well I'd probably never use it. (My second D70 battery was rarely used because one battery powered the thing about forever.) So, to get some use out of my second D300 battery, I don't leave it in the camera bag...I carry it on the camera as a built-in backup battery. The D300 also allows you to pick which battery you want to use first: the one in the MB-D10 or the one in the camera. I tend to use the MB-D10 battery because it's easier to remove for charging. You have to unscrew the MB-D10 from the D300 to get the internal EN-EL3e out of the camera body. But even then the large thumb wheel allows quick and easy removal. There is a solid rubber L-shaped plug on the camera body's bottom that protects the multiple contacts between camera and MB-D10. That plug stores in a special area on the MB-D10 so you won't lose it. And if you remove the MB-D10 for some reason to use the camera without the MB-D10, you can plug up the contacts on the camera immediately. Controls: The MB-D10 has a complete alternate set of controls on it for when you are shooting verticals: an end-mounted focus/release button with lock ring to prevent accidentally hitting it; an AF-ON button; Master (rear) and Secondary (front) selector wheels for changing program and other functions; and a four-way selector/navigation switch. It's a lot more than a battery back. The same controls your forefinger and thumb access when holding the camera horizontally are there when holding the camera vertically. And it really is more comfortable to hold vertically this way, even though you do have to get used to regripping the camera. I've shot verticals for so many years I'm still getting used to holding the camera in such a foreign way. The MB-D10 fits the D300 like it was molded in one piece: seamless and very ergonomic. It makes the camera quite large and much heavier, but it has a solid feel and for sure I'm not going to run low on power. It's also comforting to know I can buy some AA's anywhere in the world and be able to keep shooting should the EN-EL3e's not have available power for recharging. It's also nice to crank the camera to max frame rate if needed. Some say it also helps balance the camera when you have a really large lens on a tripod. And it's just so...manly. Point-and-shoots are cute and handy but this thing really dresses up the D300 in a useful manner, adds performance and extends power enough for any conceivable assignment. And in a crisis, you can swing the thing like a mace. It probably would not break even then.... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/1714056-nikon-mb-d10-multi-power-battery-pack-for-nikon-d300](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/1714056-nikon-mb-d10-multi-power-battery-pack-for-nikon-d300) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
