Product Overview

The Pentax D-BG6 Battery Grip for K-1 is built for shooters who spend long days behind the viewfinder. Slot in a D-LI90 or six AAs and you’ve effectively doubled the K-1’s stamina, so you can stay on a job, in the bush or on the sideline without stressing about a flat battery. The grip mirrors the camera’s weather sealing with 47 seals of its own, so it shrugs off dust, spray and drizzle the way a proper field tool should.

Ergonomically, it turns the K-1 into a rock-solid platform for vertical work. The extended grip, extra shutter button and control dials give you the same confident handling in portrait orientation as you’re used to in landscape. AE-L, AF, ISO and exposure-comp buttons are all right where your fingers expect them, and the added strap lugs make it easy to carry the rig vertically when you’re on the move. If you’re serious about getting the most out of your K-1 or K-1 Mark II, this is the bit of kit that makes the body feel truly complete.
