Help me find a D50 battery grip. Where can I purchase in Hidalgo? I called Watson and Mayer but unfortunately, they don't have one. Does anyone selling it?

D50 is not originally designed to have a battery grip... and the 3rd party grip has been discontinued... I think.

There are other 3rd party grips for the D50, but none being sold here in RP. If you search in google you'll find some. Opteka also has one, but per review, the quality of construction is not so good.

There are no other benefit in using these battery grip except for the good look. I have tried using one with my old D70.

It would also double your power since you can plug in 2 batts, right?:)

unfortunately - no shutter release for the D50/D70 third party grip:(

is there an available battery grip for the d50 with a shutter release button?

I haven't come across one. What they did before was to have an IR cable directly connected (or pointing to?) the infra-red receiver of the D50.
