Hi tonyong,

I do not have problems comprehending your sentence. Iirc, my 3rd party grips are not rubberized as well. Not too sure about mbd11 but won't be surprised if it did not rubberize the command dial.

Not sure if anyone else experience the same problem, the rubber on my battery is peeling a little, not serious, can repair with a little glue but I expect it to be of better quality than this.

No, seems more like the glue wasn't applied well and the rubber got loose after some use.

I find that the rubber grip on the battery grip always lose grip with my tripod adapter plate when i shoot in portrait orientation. It tends to slip off, causing my camera to pitch down. Hahhaha

Haha no la, i mean when i mount my cam with the battery grip onto my tripod adaptor, the battery grip always slips off. Need to screw in very hard to fully secure it, but i am scared too much force will break the screw thread. But its a nice to have the battery grip, for sumone with "fatter" hands like me.
