I am using an original Nikon battery grip and the battery seems to rattle inside the grip....if I remove the battery and insert the tray it is silent. There appears to be some play between the tray and battery....it does not really matter but is annoying @£250....

Anyone else have a similar problem?
 
No can't say I've noticed that.
 
I only notice it on occasion, but it doesn't bother me in the slightest - when I first had the grip I looked at the way the battery was inserted and thought there might well be a slight rattle due to the way it was constructed - i.e battery into holder, holder into grip.

Also there is always going to be a touch of play with grips, although the D7000 grip is a lot more solid and has a lot less play than my D90 grip.
 
Cheers lads! I tried 2 different grips and swapped battery trays between them also but it was the same. The battery does not rattle inside the camera so perhaps the same technology would have solved the problem.

It does not bother me but I I like to have everything perfect....lol!
