Anybody try the vertical grip from Harbortronics?

[Jonathan F/2]

I'm thinking of picking one up, I just want to get feedback from forum members who've tried one. Thanks! Oh here's the link for those who are interested.

I've seen that one, seems pretty useless though as the D70's batteries last forever, and you can't control the camera half-press unless you mod your body in the vertical orientation - no dials either.

Oh, and it also works on the IR trigger (you can use your TV remote to trigger the camera - its the same thing). The bad part about that is that it times out after 15 minutes (max, user setting)

I agree with Gregory. There are not that many people who actually went for it and most of them, including me, were disappointed.

Plus, You will LOSE your warranty after moding the camera.
