Generic Grips are cheap on E-Bay. Cant see that the Pentax Grips would be that much better.

KR, Pentax 55-300 DAL, Pentax DA 17-55, Pentax 35-80, Generic grip, Generic remote, Nissin Flash. HISTORY - MZ 50, MZ 60, *istDS, KM, K20D, Nikon F60, Nikon F90. Large assortment of Point and shoot film and Digital, Sigma 70-300 APO DG, Samyang 500mm mirror lens, Sigma lenses of all assortments. K20D now sold. Sad to see it go, but makes room for an eventual upgrade to the K5 or the K4?

Just bought a generic grip for the K7. I use the original Pentax grip with it but the generic will be "correctly" butchered to accept a 2 cell 2500mA LiPo battery rather than the Pentax battery.

Cost was $54 from Hong Kong. Didn't want to rip the original apart!

The generic grip is good and value for money. The quality and finish are not to the same standard as the Pentax unit. You pays your money and.....
