Nikon EH-5A AC Adapter for Nikon D40, D40x, D60, D80, D700 & D300 Digital SLR Cameras: Customer Reviews & Product Details

Honestly I wasn't going to get this due to the high price, although I spend a lot on camera gear. That was until I had to shoot Jewelry and decided to use live view on my D700. The fact that you can fine tune lighting and focus, and see it on a computer screen at the same time(I was tethered on a laptop) was extremely helpful. However, my batteries were running out of juice like crazy, I had to keep one on the charger and one in the camera all the time. Live view will suck the life out of your batteries. It's just I don't understand why do we have to pay 80 USD for a power cable. I tried finding aftermarket products but couldn't find any, so I had to bite the bullet.

Way too pricy. Highly recommened for all night interval photography. I just wish the price was $39.95

You need an EP-5 adapter to use this with a D60, .... as I just found out. Another $40! I can't use this AC adapter until I get the EP-5, so I have to assume it works.

$80 is a bit much for a simple AC adapter, but anything that says Nikon on it is tripled in price. It's either buy this or wear out $40 batteries. What really gets me is having to buy two of them. I bought the model (EH6 I believe) for my D200 and then I had to buy this one when I upgraded to a D300. You would think that the 2 cameras are so similar that they would use the same voltages.

But, I guess if you want to play with the big guys you have to pay the price.

A must for my new D80. Works just as it should. Very pleased as always with Nikon and with Amazon as my source for on-line buying.
