Nikon D500 Vertical Grip

This Green Extreme battery grip replaces the MB-D17 for the Nikon D500. It accepts one EN-EL15 battery or eight AA cells to double shooting time. A rubberised handle and full vertical controls improve handling for portrait work. The weather-resistant body matches the camera's durability.

Extended Sessions and Portrait Work

Photographers who need longer runtime for video, Live View or all-day events will benefit from the dual power options. Vertical shooters gain a second shutter release and command dials. Buyers who do not own a D500 cannot use this grip. Those wanting built-in charging or wireless features should look elsewhere.

MB-D17 Compatibility

The grip is engineered specifically as an MB-D17 replacement for the Nikon D500. It communicates with the camera to enable vertical shooting controls and battery reporting. No other camera model is supported. Confirm your body is a D500 before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the MB-D17 replacement maintain weather sealing on my D500 when shooting vertically in rain?

The grip features a weather-resistant design that protects against dust and moisture, matching the D500's sealing so vertical shooting stays protected in challenging conditions.

How do I confirm the vertical shutter and command dials are communicating with the D500 after attaching the grip?

Attach the grip, power on the D500, then test the vertical shutter release, AF-ON button, main and sub-command dials, and multi-selector — each should trigger the same camera response as the body controls.

Does the package include an EN-EL15 battery or AA magazine, or must I buy them separately?

The grip comes with an AA battery magazine for eight AA cells; an EN-EL15 battery is not included and must be purchased separately.
