    Nice accessory but not perfect.
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2013*

I had been used to a Nikon D200 with a MB-200 grip so purchasing this was to help get my GH3 to function much like the old D200. Upon arrival of this grip, I immediately put it to use so I could compare how it worked.Sadly, unlike the grip on the D200, this grip doesn't hold both batteries. It only holds one battery while one still goes into the camera body. Then I noticed the on and off switch. Really? The added switch told me something right away. It means the battery of the grip operates separate of the camera battery so if camera body battery dies, then power will not come from the grip unless you swap the batteries.The switch also means another thing to worry about turning on and off. If left off, the functions of the buttons on the grip will not work. Turning the switch on powers the buttons. So, you need to know when you are going to need the grip buttons and prepare to flip the switch or if you leave it it on, it is likely to have a dead battery when you need it most.The other downside to this grip is the fit. When dialed in to lock it in place, it still has a very small fraction of space between the grip and body that allows the grip to shift just a slight tad when held in different positions.The grip has a connector that requires the removal of a rubber plug on the camera body. The rubber plug is another one of the small items that is easy to loose when on the road since it is not secured to the camera.Overall, the grip works and does what it suppose to. I prefer to have it mounted at all times just because it makes the smaller camera even easier to grab and rotate. I do wish it functioned and fit more like the grip on the Nikon where it shared the dual battery setup, had a tighter fit and didn't need the separate on and off button.

    Very overpriced... but looks good on camera and works... if that's what you want.
  

*by S***7 on Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2014*

The battery grip works as should and adds around 13 ounces (with battery) to the camera.  It does make it look more "professional."  However it gets 4 stars because it is obviously overpriced (not just on amazon), once you see and feel it for yourself, and has an off center tripod mount.  It consists mostly of a plastic shell with rubberized grips with a nice addition of button and dial wheels/shutter button.  As other reviewer(s) have mentioned, it tightens well to the camera, but may have some give near the front by the new shutter button.  The tripod mount is approx. 1 inch and change off center to the right of the lens center.  This might cause problems with rig alignments or panning on tripods.  I like the grip, just not the price and mount issue.  I purchased the authentic Panasonic version for the extra cash only because I did not trust receiving a second hand version, such as on ebay for $90 less.  My price was $170 on amazon.Update 3/10/14:After two months, three things bug me about this product:1) The placeholders for the two covers of the metal contacts (one white plastic and one black rubber) do not have a snug fit. The covers constantly fall out when disconnecting the battery grip from the camera.  I have just lost the black rubber cover because of this.2) Even after hand tightening the screw wheel as much as I'm willing to, it does not have the snuggest fit to the camera.  There is still a small amount of give, or wiggle that annoys me sometimes.3) Still wish the product was at least $50 cheaper for new buyers.  Not the $170 I paid.

    Disappointing
  

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2013*

The GH3 is a fantastic cam, and I was excited that Panasonic released a grip for it. I shoot lots of timelapse and video, so the extra battery time is great. I don't have an issue with the tripod mount as I don't use any type of rig, and seldom shoot video handheld.Holding the camera with the grip in landscape mode feels great, with nice balance and good ergonomics. You even get another programmable function button. Portrait mode is another story. If you use the grip in portrait mode and shoot by framing with the LCD it is OK, but if you want to frame with the EVF it is very awkward. Your shooting hand is too high, and the grip doesn't feel comfortable at all, especially if you want to use the buttons for WB, ISO, and Exposure Compensation. I do have small hands, so this may not be a problem for others.For most of my shooting the grip is going to be very useful, but I doubt I actually shoot many handheld photos in portrait mode with it.
