Image Mount the Nikon D300 with its battery grip, the MB-D10, the machine will be able to perform high speed continuous shoot at 8fps, 2fps faster than without the battery grip.

The photo above was shot at 8fps with MB-D10 filled with 8 x AA alkaline batteries. It was shot at 1/1250 second, F2.8, ISO 6400 with the new Nano-coated Nikon AF-S 24-70mm lens at 70mm.

The images were taken using single focus point mode, in portrait mode, using the top middle focus point. Although not cross-typed sensors, it focuses noticeable faster compared with D2’s Multi-CAM 2000. The Multi-CAM 3500DX autofocus sensor module is superb.

Note that 8fps is achievable only with the usage of 8 x AA batteries or the EN-EL4a used in the D3 or D2 series camera. It is NOT possible to achieve 8fps with an additional EN-EL3e.

For those who are considering doing 8FPS, do keep in mind that if you do not have any Nikon D2 or D3, you will need to purchase the EN-EL4a and its charger MH-21 which cost approximately USD$250 (RM 850). In Malaysia, the EN-EL4a cost RM400 and MH-21 retails at RM450. Do remember to add this to your cost when planning on purchasing a battery grip.
