Minolta Dimage 7hi with a solid battery grip, "Olympus B-32LPSU"
Just another photoshop job last nite, hehe...
For fun only...dun be too serious...
This should've been a solid cam...Anyway, thx to snapper that I didn't let go this great cam... :thumbsup:
You are more then welcome ... hee hee ...
But I am really quite tempted to have the additional battery mount fabricated ... making use of some slim std lithium Ion battery and screw-in on the Tripod mount.
It will not have that nice a finish but was wondering if there is anyone interested in having it ... I think the price would be about S$100 without the batteries and charger ... Ideally it will be replaceable.
This is just for fun ... just curious how desparate Minolta 7x users are in getting a external battery.
Any takers ?

Time to show some creativity, ppl...
The guys from Dpreview Minolta forum had came up with DIY hand strap, pan head and others...
If using other batt source, need to match the voltage carefully tho, we dun want to fry the cameras...
Maha Power & other external batts might be a good solution to this. However, I personally dun like the cable tangling around me when I'm shooting...
We just hope for the good news from W Cube with DPS-9000.

wah...tat grip looks pretty impressive. eh snapper we have another 7hi fan here
Weather still quite cloudy ... have taken a few night shots but the picture still looks very misty ... even with the polariser ... well ... still playing with it ...
But I am quite keen on an external battery ... but nothing beats Hanev's battery grip ... only if it exists ...
Sigh ... maybe we can shoot in Feb ...
Cheers
I think if we make use of 6 AA 2100 mah external battery would make the camera more stable ...
looks like no one interested in my ext battery.... sigh ... no business ... AA batteries would be a good choice as no additional types of batteries would ... only AA ... get a couple more 2100 mah and the camera would be great ... I hope ...
What do you guys think ...

Just Curious ... any one tried using the Fuji 55mm Teleconverter on the 7Hi yet ... remember reading that it works well ... but then try to search the net ... could not find the article again ...

Take a look here.Originally posted by henavs
nice suggestion, Snapper...
But the downside with those AA batts is that we can only charge 4 of them at one time only, unless u have a bigger charger.
Lithium batt might still be a better choice...

It's very simple and tempting to make one but just afraid if sux the whole camera gone case ... Dare not take the risk, so i choose to wait for DPS-9000 ...
