The Nikon MB-D17 is a first-party multi power battery pack designed specifically for the Nikon D500 DSLR camera body. It attaches to the base of the camera via the battery compartment, providing an extended vertical shooting grip with a duplicate set of key shooting controls including a shutter release, main and sub command dials, and AF-ON button oriented for comfortable portrait orientation shooting without awkward hand positioning. This listing is configured specifically for use with the EN-EL18 series battery, which when used with the BL-5 battery chamber cover unlocks the D500’s maximum continuous shooting rate of 10fps. Note that the EN-EL18 battery and BL-5 battery chamber cover are not included and must be sourced separately.

James ★★★★★

Picked this up used for my D500 and the vertical shutter button placement is much more comfortable for portrait shots. The grip itself feels solid and adds just the right amount of weight for better balance with a heavy lens.

Harper ★★★★★

Switching to the EN-EL18 battery made a noticeable difference in how long I can shoot before needing a swap. The grip feels solid and locks onto the camera body without any wobble. It’s a worthwhile upgrade for extended sessions.

Thomas W. ★★★★★

I was worried about the used condition, but the EN-EL18 battery slides in and out smoothly without any wobble. The vertical shutter button feels just as responsive as the main one, which is exactly what I needed for portrait shots.
