Rated 5 out of 5

Attaching the external battery pack is worth it to me

I have had my Z8 since May 26th. Overall 5 stars. It does everything I need and want it to. I leave the external battery pack on. I like the way it holds the camera battery door much more than my Z7. With my 100-400S lens, which I use much of the time, and the ext battery pack, my setup comes in at 6 pounds. So I lift weights to get that to feel light. 8^) I like the way the camera feels with the external battery pack, and for what I shoot, I know I will never run out of power or have to switch batteries. To me the functionality with the additional 1 lb ext pack on far outweighs its size and weight. Just FYI: 5 stars for focusing both with AF-S and in AF-C 3D. I had been trying (unsuccessfully with my Z7) to focus on a vocalist whose movements are almost continuous and always unpredictable. AF-C 3D gives me eyelash sharp pics every time regardless of where and how he moves. Just FYI: Right now 4 stars for Silent Mode . Sometimes it is not silent.

Are you a portrait, event, or sports photographer seeking a more balanced feel during vertical shooting Or perhaps a landscape photographer looking for extended shooting time The MB-N12 Multi Battery Power Pack with Vertical Grip is your ideal companion for the Nikon Z8 camera. This power pack not only extends your shooting time by 1.8x (according to CIPA standards) compared to using a single battery in the camera alone, but it also adds the convenience of a vertical shutter release button, main and sub-command dials, a multi-selector, Fn button, and an AF-ON button.

When attached to the Z8, the MB-N12 allows you to focus on capturing more moments without the worry of battery life. Its ergonomic design ensures a firm and secure grip, even when a long telephoto lens is attached. This makes it an invaluable tool for photographers who need to shoot for extended periods or in remote locations without access to a power outlet.

The MB-N12 is powered by two EN-EL15 series batteries (EN-EL15c, EN-EL15b, or EN-EL15a), providing hot swapping versatility of one battery and USB power charging and delivery. This means you can remove one of the two batteries and the power pack will still provide power to the Z8, with no interruption to shooting as long as the remaining battery still has power.

Designed with the same dust- and drip-resistance performance as the Z8, the MB-N12 is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. You can even charge the two EN-EL15c batteries within the MB-N12 via USB power charging using the EH-7P Charging AC Adapter or EH-8P AC Adapter. (Note: Using the EH-8P requires the use of the optional UC-E25 USB Cable.)

In short, the MB-N12 Multi Battery Power Pack with Vertical Grip for Z8 Camera is a reliable, high-quality, and compact solution for photographers seeking extended battery life and a more comfortable grip for their Nikon Z8 camera.
