D7000 users...fall in!!! Part 3

[luckyorange]

Went back to check my $68 dollars hercules bg. the main dial at the back to turn ISO in aperture mode is normal. BUT the front secondary dial at your index finger is reversed (confirmed). So you turn left to increase instead of right.

I'm using the bg too but not at $68 =).. but i'm used to the dial.. haha dint really notice reversed anot lei haha

Maybe it's an issue of production date then. Perhaps I just happened to grab the latest set while you weren't so lucky

My front dial is ok. Left to open up aperture, right to close

Left open aperture, right close.
Left for longer exposure, right for shorter

Is that so? I bought right after you. I shall lodge a complaint with sgcamerastore if that's the case. Although production date would most likely be an irrelevant explanation. So front dial left drops the f value, right increases for your ng correct?

Maybe the set I grabbed from the shelf is the latest, after both dial problems have been fixed. While the set you grabbed has been lying there for some time. It makes perfect sense for them to bring in new stocks in light of the sale

Hmm... If that's the case, I'll like to join in as well. I got it yesterday...

well just see what happens. but don't forget that it might be mine which is defective, in a good sense

Hahaha. I was thinking that too. Let's see how sgcamerastore respond? I actually don't mind the orientation. Haha. So long as usable can Liao.

but of course it'll be better if the orientation is right. if mine's defective i don't mind lending to Hercules to take advantage of the fault

Although I would like have more cross referencing cause it seems like you are the only special case with the front dial being proper instead of reversed. Perhaps you might wanna check it in case you got it wrong all this while. But nonetheless I'll call sgcamera and tell them that they actually sold a battery grip with the right orientation for $68 while everyone else got the one with the reversed front dial. Update you guys tomorrow.

Iirc mine don't have lei, I go home check again

 

[hawthorne907]

My hercules one also doesn't have. Quite okay. Do check if you have any loose items lodged in between by accident.

 

[seezhijie]

Mine is perfectly tight. Feels a little plastic and hollow but other than that it's perfectly solid and tight
