Can I get one? If so where from?

I've done my usual spacktard Googling/eBay/Amazon searching, but to no avail.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Doesn't look like it has an additional shutter release though.....

If you google "nikon d50 battery grip", there's plenty of sellers so just a case of finding the cheapest.




ETA - Ebay

Currently £29.00 shoutand finishing in 53 minutes (11:15)

Ebay also has them available for £29 new (but from China), this uses an infra-red trigger for the vertical shutter release which isn't the best, but would work. also this does not include batteries and you could end up paying vat etc.....

Ebay

I've got one I've never used. Yours for a lot less than I paid for it if it's any good to you? I never go anywhere which warrants that much battery power! Bung me a message if you want to discuss.

There were some Chinese-made ones at Focus last month. I have to say I considered one for the D70 for all of a nanosecond or two. They do have the advantage of a shutter release, but not the half-depression control that you really need, and a wonderful fitment that goes over the infra-red release. One was something like c£70. Be happier spending ten times that much to get hold of a D200 and then adding the proper Nikon part....
