    does there a difference between these two battery grips for nikon d7000? help me

    hi
    I want to but a battery Grip for my Nikon D70000,
    I found on the internet these two :
    one costs 50 $ and the other one is 220 $

    Amazon.com: Nikon MB-D11 Multi-Power Battery Pack for Nikon D7000 Digital SLR Camera (Retail Packaging): Camera & Photo


    Amazon.com: Neewer Vertical Battery Grip for Nikon D7000 Digital SLR (DSLR) Camera MB-D11 EN-EL15: Electronics

    does the cheaper one fully compatible with Nikon D7000 and does it work well, does there is a difference between both ? help me to choose because one is cheap and the other is expensive .

    You would probably get more knowledgable responses in the Nikon forum - Terry

    I don't have a grip for my D7000 yet, but when ready, I'll be buying the Nikon MB-D11. Everything I've read about the third party grips, which the Neewer is, is that the dials work the exact opposite of the ones on the camera. (Example: If the dial on camera turns to the right, to go to the higher f-stops, it'll turn to the left on the third party grip, for the same numbers.) I can see where that would get very aggravating and frustrating.

    Maybe the Neewer grip doesn't do that? I don't know. Amazon has a good return policy, so buy it and find out, and let the rest of us know. You can be our Beta tester............

    EDIT:
    I just read most of the customer reviews at Amazon, for the Neewer grip. The wheels do work in reverse of the ones on the camera, and a plastic piece that holds batteries in place has broken off, after only a few days, on some of them.
