QUOTE(acc10 @ Feb 16 2009, 02:49 PM) I just bought 2 pairs of Hahnel as well at RM60, Tony unwilling to lower down the price. Battery grip VG-B30am wannabe without battery is RM230 only...droooling lah. there are many cons regarding this VG according to someone who just bought it recently Con's 1. On/off switch hard to use. hard to turn on and off 2. Don't have Sony Alpha logo 3. Quite warm a bit - feel different then i hold the camera grip (i think because of the material) 4. Octopus Battery grip wont change to second battery automatically when the 1st battery finish-up
