Sorry forget to add

Buy extra battery is most important than you hold the grip and only single battery.

Unless you attach the 6 pcs AA recharger battery and increase the weight.

Another noob question again. I understand than battery grip will not increase fps like in D300s, what will be benefits if add on the grip?

Battery grip on D300/s & D700
Can be using multi battery type like D3 battery or AA & EL battery, the benefit can be holding more comfort on hand or shots at vatical on portraits shots.

From D7000 & D600 the only benefit of vatical & use AA battery for long battery life.

Nissin flashes are pretty capable, can use it until you need something more advance.
