Hello, I'll be going to a tropical area and was wondering what's the best kind of battery to buy? I'm looking to buy two more since I won't always have a way to charge them. I've heard that some have a longer life than others, and was wondering which ones would you recommend. Also does a battery grip help a lot? Thanks!

In my personal opinion the best batteries are those made by the camera manufacturer. I have had issues with 3rd-party batteries however I have never had ANY issues with Nikon-branded batteries.

Same for grips. Yes, they do help a lot. While the camera manufacturer's versions cost a lot more (frequently a *LOT*) more they are, again in my personal opinion, worth the difference. They do not increase battery life, however they do hold two batteries at the same time and most of them (at least the Nikon brand does) comes with a holder that allows one to use standard AA batteries in a pinch.
