I interpret this statement "The PENTAX battery grip D-BG2 offers the necessary power to ensure an optimal performance of the K10D camera while it’s in continuous use. The grip is equipped with the same Li-Ion battery as the camera." from the brochure at this url: http://www.pentax.no/accounts/433774/File/Datablader/8690.pdf as meaning the grip does come with a battery. -- David S.
