I can use my D800 with the MB-D12 and put battery only in the MBD-12, work in this way??

The battery can be in the camera body while the mb-d12 is empty OR the battery can be in the mb-d12, while the camera is empty.

Yes, you sure can. You can even run your D800 from disposable AA Energizers if you want. As long as there is a charge in either battery location, the camera will keep on shooting.

I think there is a vertical grip for the D3200 but the MB D12 works only for D800

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!

I am not a Nikon tech. But the D80 is older and has a different wattage. I would verify with the manufacture specs on ratings to verify if it can handle the load. Personally I would be more comfortable matching the same voltage.

Yes, you definitely can use the battery grip as the sole source of power. I prefer not to put a battery in the D7000 when the grip is in place. It is simple enough to change the battery in the grip when the battery is exhausted, so there really isn't a need to use two batteries (especially given the long life of the EN-EL15 battery). And you don't have to go into the menus to do this. Simply remove the battery from your camera, and put one in the grip and you are ready to take photos. I got my MB-D11 three days ago and have been taking photos all three days without a need to make my first battery change (433 captures). Also, my MB-D11 has none of the problems reported by others and is a classic example of Nikon quality.

Yes, Works fine with only one battery installed on either side. I did notice that the battery level indicator on my camera only showed 1/2 battery like it was half dead when in fact it is actually full, when using one battery. But works fine. NIKON D3100

Yes, I use it with the D800 both with and without the battery pack. It is a bit odd to set up as the instructions are poor. Go online and there are photos of it that show how it works.

The Nikon MBD15 is the battery grip for the D7100/ MBD12 is for the D800. All models have a model specific grip. Simply googling the camera "model #, battery grip" will answer this question for any model or brand of camera.

I don't own a D800 but the wiring on the unit is the same no matter which camera you use it on. The plugin to the unit will stand no mistreatment whatsoever. As inexpensive as the unit is you might give it a try. After my third cord, I gave up.

I believe Nikon hasn't really changed the battery size or configuration. I have a D3100 and it works for that.

Nikon batteries have a proprietary chip inside to prevent you using other brands. This WASABI battery has a decoded chip that should function identical to the Nikon battery. Seems to work perfectly in my D800E.

Very good question and I wish I asked that before i purchased. Initially, both batteries worked in my "D3200" but after a few uses now only 1 works. Spend the extra $ and get the Nikon batteries...

You can use the Nikon battery. In fact, that would probably be preferable as the batteries that came with it were junk.

I used it with my D800. Works great. The timer on the remote is really nice if you are shooting bulb especially.

It is working fine with my Nikon D800. I had two original batteries, and I bought the replacementsas a backup set. Keep one battery at full charged and the rest at 40% charged to save battery life.
