Riccardo,
Some time ago I saw an after market grip advertised in Outdoor Photographer magazine
that was designed to fit the FM2/FE2 series bodies. It was an all metal unit that
consisted of a vertical grip bar attached to a bottom mounting plate that mated up to
the tripod hole. I can't remember who made the grip, and I haven't seen it advertised
for some time so I don't know if they are still available. Maybe someone else on the
list can help us out, because I'd like to enhance the gription of my FM2, too.
Good luck, and let me know if you find anything.
Regards,
Mark Ellingson

Hello everyone,
I own a FM2 and I want improve the handling of the camera.
Of course I considered purchasing the MD-12, but it is really too
expensive here, even in the second hand market (consider that the FM2
is
my second body, using my F801s when I need fast winding).
Any other Nikon motor drive (MD-11, MD-15)?
Any third party winder? I heard of a Soligor winder (bad news
actually):
can it somehow harm my FM2n?
I thought about buying a not functional MD-12, and use it only as a
grip.
Can I use the camera shutter button with a 'dead' MD-12 attached?
Thanks in advance.
