In this 13th hour of development, we are testing a coating process to improve the texture and color match to the camera. It may also create a rubbery feel as well! The delays are awfully frustrating to all involved... we appreciate your patience as we get the production process finalized.

Our casting vendor is continuing to have difficulty producing the grips to our satisfaction... we had to reject the first production batch, so our shipments have to be delayed. Sorry!!!

The VG-D70 is in final production.
The designs are all complete, materials have been approved, and we have several vendors making various parts of the grip for us. They will trickle in slowly at first as everything gets ramped up, but we anticipate being able to start shipping on the week of Feb 14.... sorry it's taken so much time, it's been a long process!
In the meantime, here is the manual for the VG-D70, which describes it completely, including some pictures. Manual
The price is $165, and we will accept orders for the VG-D70 immediately by check. We will ship in the order checks are received. We anticipate a large demand, so there may be a wait for some customers.

Individual grips will be shipped via Priority mail within the US for $10. Additional grips in shipment add $5.
Global Express mail will be used to ship to Canada and overseas. Canada $20 and other countries range from $20 to $35 per grip. Additional grips in an order add $5. Please e-mail [email protected] for a shipping quote.
