I realise its not as well made as the original but looks very good value if you are wanting to bulk up the camera.

It looks exactly as the original. It's probably made by the manufacturer of the original one. Everything is a dead ringer of the original.

Does 'look' spot on but doesn't mention weather sealing anywhere.

Thought the same thing, then I thought, at that price, who cares!

While we are on cheap K-7 stuff ... Battery from Play.com £10.99 with free postage. Not available yet but looks a pretty good make.

I think it should fit on the underneath of one of those cameras called a Pentax 7 (don't quote me on it though)

At that price the word SHOULD is probably about right.

Wonder if I can tape it onto my K10D.

All down to personal preference I guess

If I'm wandering around with a few primes I usually don't bother with the grip. If I have either the 16-50 or 60-250 fitted then I find the grip makes a much better balanced package.

Certainly makes sense Clarky

So Mike, still trying to keep the powder dry on the K-7?
