i read in a forum, cant recall, that if you are good with small tools, have an eye for detail, and good soldering skills, you can actually reverse those dials to function like the original ones......

google is your best friend

sure? good one i try to search and see, but i did try out 'china' grip before and it worked exactly like original orientation, but recently i got one from forumer here, and the shutterspeed dial is in reverse. sad.gif and she is reluctant to do refund since when i purchase she said the part is from japan, thou she never said is original, since she offered 18 months warranty, so i would like to try out, but the reverse dial is really annoying.

i went to shop to tried out meika grip, it have both shutterspeed/ aperture dial in reverse... doh.gif

Mine's Meike and it's in reverse too. I don't mind, that's what you get for the price you pay for doh.gif I need to get used to it, that's all, which I already have of course. haha.

if then i would go for meike for rm200 than a fake product for rm340 with both also reverse dial.. isn't it? but the forummer keep sending the unit back for repair and came back with same problem for almost half a year now. doh.gif

its already a manufactured item that is made to be reversed, you can send it back a zillion times, it will always be reversed, you can either sell it cheap then buy an original one from nikon or the 3rd party you mentioned or learn to live with it with a little Patience.....yeah like Patience,,,,,did i mentioned Patience ......?  tongue.gif

or you can impatiently rip it out, solder it so it functions as per your camera body  drool.gif

good luck

sell it might not be a good way, since the next victim might come back at me....

How do i solder it as per function of the body? cant even find the link in google, can pm? tongue.gif
