If you use the multi button on the camera, you can skip thru pictures from
left to right and up -down will give info and RGB histogram. But on the grip
the multi button is reversed: to go thru picture is up-down en info is left
right.
I addressed this issue and Nikon support Europe told me they might change /
update the firmware.
So owners of D300: start complaining!
It is a nice feature, though. Not even the D3 has it. But the D300 with grip
is taller than the D3.

You have to be joking. Get a life and find something real to bitch about.
Man get your money back right away. Get a Canon and then you will have
something worthwhile to complain about.

You realize that you can program the D300 button to work either way, do
you not?

With or without religion, you would have good people doing
good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good
people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Yes, all buttons, more or less, can be changed and exchanged, like the sub
and main command dial and the direction is also changed on the grip at the
same time. But this seems a lot like an overlook of Nikon. It can not be
changed, unless they update the firmware. This is what Nikon Europe support
told me. And they were also quite surprised!
Feels a little clumsy, because now the directions is exactly the same as the
one on the camera. If you move your thumb more to the left, you have the
camera multi button, so what would be the advantage otherwise?
I think the whole idea is to make you feel it's the same vertical as
horizontal, isn't it?
