4 out of 5 stars Good power pack.   June 15, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

When I received the power pack unit, I was surprised to see that it has six batteries to run the camera. I purchased six new rechargeable batteries, fully charged them and put it into operation. But surprising to me the batteries in the power pack went down even faster than the original battery. Anyway I will recharge them and go again.
Good unit.....

Nice upgrade for your Nikon camera. The shutter button built on the side of this battery pack is sometimes hard to press, but it ain't why I bought this item, was it? :)

6AA-batteries needed.



5 out of 5 stars I have to say one thing, this is a must buy!!! Enough said   January 12, 2005
If you own the Nikon 5700 or 8700 do yourself a favor and get this battery pack. The most important thing it does is not make it possible to use AA batteries that is a bonus and its purpose.

The most important thing, I feel that this battery pack does is add greater grip ability to the cameras. If you use any Nikons for a while, you know the buttons on the side. Can you pressed accidentally over this battery pack that happens way less often! This alone is such a great feature that I think it merits purchase on that fact alone.

Plus having AA batteries available means, you will never be out of juice.

Peace out



1 out of 5 stars Nikon Can Do Much Better, They Did Badly On The MB-E5700   October 6, 2004
 8 out of 10 found this review helpful

I formerly had a Nikon Coolpix 4500, the battery used was Nikon,s usual EL-EN1, was not great as far as capacity was concerned, but was just fine if you bought a second battery as I did, had the 4500 for some years, great camera, unfortunately, in a moment of being clumsy I dropped it on a concrete floor, no more 4500.
I replaced it with the Nikon CoolPix 8700, results are spectacular, this machine uses the same EL-EN1,I bought the MB-E5700 loaded it with Ni-Mh batteries rated at 2300 milliamps, that is a high powered AA battery, it works great on digital cameras, video cameras, etc. The batteries went dead in about 30 shots, tried it again with another brand of the same rating as the first try, results, about 30 shots, its all over.
To make sure all was ok with my 8700, put back the original Nikon battery, the EL-EN1, everthing worked just fine.
In conclusion, I say this, do not even consider this thing, it eats batteries, it makes the camera for all intents and purposes not usable, Nikon did a very bad job on this. Calling Nikon is a waste of time, so in less than 24 hours this product is on its way back to Amazon, and it is not Amazon,s fault.
I cannot believe that Nikon did not know how bad this product was.



3 out of 5 stars Not so Great   February 5, 2004

I purchased this battery pack assuming it would yield me more shooting time on my nikon 5700. However,my experience has bee less than satisfying with this accesory . I find the original lithium battery that came with the camera lasts longer than a set of six (expensive) alkaline batteries attached via the MB-E5700 and forget about the rechargable batteries, they last even less. I believe it would be more cost efficient to purchase two extra lithium bateries and have them available when shooting for extended periods. Another minus is that the battery pack adds more weight to the camera and makes it more bulky. I would think twice when purchasing this item. In my opinion it really isn't necesary.
