Hi
Unusual request from me. I am looking for cheapest possible grip for K100d. It may even not work at all. The reason is that I have a job where I must look professional to someone who knows only one thing about cameras. The bigger the better. And my k100d doesn't score much in this field. I heard someone lost a job purely for this reason, so please...help

Thanks
Pawel

What a rubbish job! You don't need a grip to look professional.
Best regards, John

No need to explain this to me. I was doing alight with naked k100d, however, this may get me a bit more work for next few weekends.

Having a discussion in a classified thread? tut tut!

Pawel, I note K100d knock-off grips are still available on ebay for c£30... It is a shame your client is so blinkered but hey.

Alternatively you could consider renting a K5 from SRS

K5's are just too small.

I reckon two grips, stacked, joined sensitively with black gaffer tape. That'll do it. And a stick-on Canonikon badge.
