Harbortronics Ships VG-D70 Battery Grip for Nikon D70
Harbortronics has just begun shipping their new VG-D70 Vertical / Battery Grip for the Nikon D70. This add-on may be just what you D70 owners have been looking for and unable to acquire from Nikon. It's a perfect match, both physically and asthetically, for the D70's black body. The VG-D70 gives you the ability to have two EN-EL3 battery packs attached to your camera, giving you enough power to take 1,000's of shots. If you only want the advantage of the grip without extra weight just use one battery. It makes the D70 more stable and secure when using a long zoom lens and/or an external flash. It adds a vertical grip and shutter release which can be triggered using the camera's IR function. For those who like to take long exposures or anyone who needs a way to trigger the shutter via a wired remote, the VG-D70 provides a standard connector for it. And you won't lose your tripod socket either, there's a metal one on the base of the grip.
