Hello all
I have a nice little Nikon EM a CLP body with
5 of the proper E lenses. However no I want
an N65 & the MB-17 I believe that's it. It
allows my Sister to use 4 AA batteries instead
of the 2 expensieve batteries. Ok I'm a
sucker once, but I don't like these plastic
wonders. You learn nothing about photography
my feelings anyway.
Ok I am just sick of searching for how to
remove the N65 battery cover then install
the insert & screw the battery holder into
the tripod mount. I would apreciate it if
someone could help me. How do I remove the
cover without breaking it? I told her I would do it but I am going to take her at her word &
when she feels comfortable. She will take the
EM learn it & I will fix her up with an FE
& some nice Nicor Lenses.
I thank You for any help or if you can provide a site. She bought this adapter in the
box & no instruction came from Nikon.
Cheers Mike. |

No experience but, usually with these grips, you just open the door and fit the grip. The open battery door then slides into a slot (hole) in the grip. |

Open the battery door to about 45 degrees, then gently pull at a slight angle so that one hinge pops out before the other. |
