MB-D80 Multi Power Battery Pack: Two questions: 1) Does anyone know if using the MB-80 battery pack will increase the shutter speed of the D90?

1)No the MB-80 will not increase shutter speed for the D90. 2)I'm assuming you mean the AA tray. No you must charge each batteries from outside the tray, there is no product that will charge the batteries within the tray.

I shoot two SB-800's and one SB-900 with either a Nikon D3 or D3s, and it works perfectly. I should think that would apply to your equipment as well, but you might want to Google the question and see if it has been answered in any of the on-line chatrooms.

No, I'm sorry I don't believe this grip is compatible with the D90 model. The shape of the battery is quite different. This grip only works with an EN-EL14 battery. Here is a link for a battery grip that should be compatible for you, Neewer® Replacement MB-D80 Battery Grip Hand Grip Works with 6pcs AA Battery or EN-EL3e Battery (Battery Not Included) + Battery Grip Holder for Nikon D80 D90 SLR Camera

According to Nikon web site, the MB-D12, used in measurements of continuous shooting, works with the Nikon D810:What's more, high-speed continuous shooting at up to 5 fps with the FX-format image area and up to 7 fps* with the DX-format image area is possible for excellent response to a wide variety of scenes. *When powered by the AC Adapter EH-5b or the Multi-Power Battery Pack MB-D12 with batteries other than the Rechargeable Li-ion Battery EN-EL15.

It allows you to use nikon batteries. I have a D610 without any problems. You can also opt for AA batteries. It has an attachment for that

This works on my D800. I have about 2,200 shots on the battery on its first charge - and about 40% remaining.

I have not had an issue with the battery pack, but did have issues with batteries after an update with my 60D. I have dealt with Newer products & been happy. Check the batteries first. Sometimes if there is an issue with the first battery it will not work. Good luck

I used the sb910 9very similar to sb900) on the Nikon D800 very successfully. I can only assume that these similar items will also work together. Why wouldn't the D800e work as well as the D800 on this speedlight? I recommend checking with Nikonusa.com website.

My experience has been very good... Over Christmas for example, I had a battery last me for a few days, and that's with shooting probably 20 photos and a little video each day. On trips where I'm doing a lot of shooting I may go through a battery each day and recharge at night. Since I have two batteries I just cycle them through and am never lacking a charged battery. When I got my camera, a firmware update made battery life significantly better... Could be the same for you. Best of luck!

It doesn't take much time to charge the Nikkon's battery (less than 1 hour for sure!) and as it is lithium it lasts a lot of time. Of course it depends on the quality of photos you're taking. To more pixels and to higher quality the camera needs more battery and memory. When I bought this camera it came with 2 lithium batteries and a grip which enables you to add 4 AA batteries. If I were you I would buy a back-up to make sure you don't run out of battery while taking pictures. Photographers advise to do it. I hope this information will be useful to you.

The cells inside the one I bought were marked 2600mAh, so definitely not the rated 3300mAh. That said, it seems to last ages. I've had one consistent problem using this in the Smatree battery grip for the D800: if the battery in the D800 is low or dead, then regardless of how charged this battery is, entering Live View will show ERR. Have to release the shutter to clear the error. So if you use Live View a lot, might want to look elsewhere. Also possible I got a dud, your mileage may vary, etc.

Nikon says that it takes 1 hour and 50 minutes to charge a fully exhausted battery. Now for how long that will last will vary. Using the flash, not using flash, shooting video and so on. I never been to Europe, so I have no idea if the plugs are the same as here in the U.S. but I think that's something you want to find out. I would suggest you get one of those portable charge stations to keep with you when you need. You won't have the luxury of a spare battery with this model. When the battery goes down, you will have to stop shooting and charge the camera. Overall, I think it is a great camera. You will have to pay attention to the "Scene Mode" tho. Setting the scene to match what you are shooting controls the shutter speed. If the scene you are shooting is different than the one you have set the camera for, your pictures will be out of focus. I had to send tech support an email and they explained that to me. I love the camera and the various functions. I suggest you play with it for a while and you will learn to love it too.

On my D800, I set the battery type to FR6 (AA lithium), this is under Custom Settings -> d Shooting/Display -> d11 MB-D12 battery type. This shows the charge, although I have no idea how accurate it is. A single charge seems to power the camera for many many hundreds of photos, perhaps even 1000+. It needs charging so infrequently I honestly am not sure how many photos it lasts through, but it's certainly a lot. Hope this helps!

Any time I take my camera on vacation, or before I take it anyplace, I put a battery in the charger. I have seen no difference in these or the Nikon brand while using them. Much cheaper then Nikon.

Not sure I understand the question. Nikon's d800 battery grip is the MBD12.

Yes, I use these on Nikon N90S. Set your camera to manual, drop your shutter speed down until your reach 'bulb' or in some cases '---' the lowest shutter speed. I did have a little bit of trouble on a Nikon D200, it just took some patience to get them to communicate. These are really reasonable triggers; great for more than one camera.
