Hi there guys,
I have heard that the Nikon vertical grip mb-16 can be placed on the s2pro which will in turn replace the cr123 batteries? Anyone out there with such a setup and also is the "modification" made reversible?? Thanks. Cheers all! |

Oh yeah.... I'm one of them... Haha....
Just sand/file (whatever method) away the 'curve' area of the MB-16. Put in 4 AA batteries and u're ready to shoot... It replaced the 2 CR123... Not exactly a vertical grip. No shutter release. More for the stability and to increase the build of the cam. ![]() |
