Have you tried it with only 4 AA batteries? I mean without the en-el15 inside the body, can the camera even be turned on on such low power? I had the D700 + MB-D10, the D800/810+ MB-D12 in the past, and they all shoot on 8 AA batteries. I have the D850 + MB-D18 now but I left the AA carrier in the box. I certainly will test it myself later. But it's really hard to believe for me if the camera can work on just 4 AA batteries!

Rex Linn Good question. Camera let’s you select the order of the batteries but not sure if it would work on it’s own. Very limited runtime would be my guess. I never used the AA carrier in the past on any of my battery grips. I also had the D700 combo as well.

Still wrong, as all of the MB-D's with battery option it is designed to work with 8xAA's (stated in the MB-D18s Manual). I am pretty sure it won't work with 4 (the MB-D10 on my D300 doens't, identical construction). The runtime on 8 AA batteries is excellent also but quiet heavy..

Battery grips over the years have been very similar. It is strange though how some increase FPS while others don't. In some cases the increase is also different. On my D300s the grip takes the FPS from 7 to 8. On my my D700, which uses the same grip, has an increase from 5 to 8FPS. I believe it is to do with the power consumption of the camera rather than mechanics. Also, I get the increase in FPS using the EN-EL4 battery or the AA NIMH rechargeables. BTW: I am also waiting for a charger to arrive so I can use the bigger battery. Good stuff!
@JohnLemieux6 жыл бұрын
The only reason the AAs don't increase the frame rate in the D850 is because nikon wants you to buy the D5 battery. 8 AA batteries put out the same voltage as the EnEl18.

there are non nikon battery grips that cost a bit less instead of the 300+ I think they are under 200. I would probably buy the copy as I've no real need for the extended battery that often but the grip at times is nice with the extra shutter button. Some second party grips come with a wireless remote shutter trigger. OF course if you want to get faster frame rates you might look into the mirrorless
@MrTanker10a5 жыл бұрын
My two cents into your demo is that if you do not have a need for 9-FPS shooting? Then, it is not worth the premium price of 2-Frames Per Second. For walking around doing hand-hold shooting ? The MB-D18 is worth its weight in gold. I have the MB-d18 and I have purchased an EN-El15A battery and I get a lot of "extended time" with the regular battery installed. I shoot a lot of still-images and for that? It's more economical for me to purchase an extra EN-EL15A so that I can my charging system to remain consistent for ease of replacement and travel. However having a twin battery charger (NIKON or otherwise) makes great sense for this grip... Especially when I am shooting in my home and having both batteries ready to go with or without grip...Typically, I have the D850 on a tripod and at such instances, I have found little use for the battery grip because I can easily slide an EN-EL15A IN/OUT the battery compartment even with the an L-Bracket installed...

The Nikon D850 seems like a great camera, excelling in so many areas. But this issue about having to spend $700 on a battery pack just to get the fps from 7fps to 9fps is a game changer as far as I am concerned. I don't believe any of the Canon models have this requirement. So I question whether if it's the higher amperage the extra larger battery could provide (unlikely), or possible that the installation of the larger battery trips a hardware switch inside the camera to allow for the higher fps, so that Nikon can reap in more money for the "upgrade"..

Minor issue but it could affect, in the D500 the screen shows you have in RAW+JEPG and the D850 is only RAW, so the d500 is saving two files and it might suffer on fps. if you have an SD card in either one, those are slower so it will suffer to save 9 or 10fps. it is better just to have it saving or shooting RAW only to XQD, or at least not RAW+JPEG.. (I guess JPEG only might be faster, but who wants JPEGS with these cameras)

I want to tell you that this experiment missed critical consideration of D500's shutter mode. Actually, as your video shows, the D500's burst speed is varied(e.g., 5:23 and 5:29 sounds different interval of shutter sound) by some issues(i.e., Flicker reduction option is on, attached lens's VR is on; that 200-500mm f/5.6 VR does have this feature as well). You should make clear that both options are off to show a genuine result of D500's shutter speed. On the other hand, you can also check and say the burst speed by measuring the distance between peaks response to each shutter released at the sound graph of this video. I've checked and compared my D850, D500(CL mode set to 9 fps for comparison) and D4s(set CL mode at 9, 10 fps for crosscheck). All bodies were experimented with front cap (not the lens), and flicker mode was off. They sound nothing different, although this video does not. Please check your experimental environment again and renew the information.

Thanks for this. I’ve got both D850 and D500 so I can shoot 7 or 10fps respectively. Would be good to shoot 9fps at the 46mp on the D850 but can you tell me how the buffering works? The buffer on the D500 runs for ages and is unrestricted even without a battery grip you’re getting 10fps and you won’t stop. From my experience of the D850 it does stop to buffer quite quickly. To be honest, that’s probably partly to do with the fact I’m not using XQD. But what about the actual camera buffer? If you’re using the D850 with the grip and added battery to get 9fps...what’s the buffer like? Having said all that...it’s a lot of money for 2fps extra,. If it took it up to 12 or 14 it might be more of a draw for me. At the end of the day you could always just carry an antra standard battery in your pocket rather than pay all that money for the grip. Although the portrait button setup is nice. Thanks.
@LEXPIX4 жыл бұрын
Both cameras can shoot 200 images in JPG mode before the buffer fills up. The D850 buffer fills up at 51 images when shooting in the 14 bit RAW whereas the D500 can handle 200 in 14 bi RAW as I understand it.

Batteries cannot be recharged while in the camera. And one will not charge the other. So yes, you need to remove the body battery to recharge it. If you use from the grip battery first, and recharge it before the camera needs to swap to the internal, you won't need to remove the grip very often. I will pull the body battery out and recharge it once it drops down into the 80%'s over time. And it's not a big deal to remove the grip and put it back on.

We all know Nikon isn't paying anywhere near that for their cells so I can't see why anyone would waste their money on a Nikon battery. Aftermarket work just as well at a fraction of the cost. When I had my D810, the Nikon grip always lost connection with the camera when you would hold it by the grip only. I wish Nikon would do a better job with the connection.

You know, at some point I wish people would just stop making ad hoc on the fly videos, which are incomplete, not done to high standards, so the channels have better content. Please, if you are going to make another video, can you go about it in a slightly more scientific and organized fashion? As is, your video is of very little value and misleading. As mentioned below, in other comments, there is a place on the vertical grip (you failed to show) to store that dinky rubber piece. Second, all you had to do to let us hear the difference in assumed frame rate was take out the battery from the grip (fast), not remove the entire grip. Third, you neglected to reveal the real cost of upgrading to the larger battery by leaving out the fact that you also have to buy the $300+ dollar charger for the battery making the entire upgrade $900+ for most people (unless they already own the charger (in which case they probably own the battery too). Fourth, charge the battery before you "test" it. Fifth, if you aren't going to actually clock count the fps (but just let us hear the difference), it seems like you would have at least revealed, under the best conditions (after listing what those are), how quickly the buffer fills up at both frame rates. Clearly, if you get 9 fps and you are shooting at 14 bit raw, and you only get 18 shots before the buffer fills, then this might be a reason not even to consider going to higher fps. Fps acquisition is only important if the buffer speed can keep up. I'll stop here because it's clear where I'm headed.

dance2jam UNBELIEVABLE... This video was so close to being a JOKE. Ill equipped with knowledge, unprepared to present, continuously fumbling, and yet using just four AA batteries in a chamber that takes eight. “Come On!!!” As stupid as I am I was able to figure out this guy don’t know Bo and he don’t know shit either!

dance2jam holy crap, a man makes a video and get clobbered. Crazy world anymore. It answered a couple questions ai had. Much appreciated. I don’t need 9 FPS but the grip came as a freebie with my 850 purchase. I will use it at different times when I feel the need. Thanks for taking the time to make the video my friend.
