D850 to achieve 9fps..?

Now I know why I can't achieve 9 fps with DSTE grip and the EL18A with integrated cover and charger because it means no

I do 9 to 10 fps with this set up

Wasabi charger, Hahnel clone of ENEL18, with a 3rd party BL-6 bought off Amazon for 10 quid = 9fps in Mcoplus Grip on my D850 in cation almost daily since March

And just to confirm the OEM ENEL18b works fine on this charger and grip.

I mean with the one piece battery with integrated charger and cap, I ask the factory already and they said no, and how you get 10fps as the D850 only offer 9fps maximun?

I may have misunderstood your post and which set-up you use

Mu D850 can reach 10 FPS under optimal conditions

That’s Nikon ratings giving the guaranteed frame rate

maximum?

Where did you read maximum in Nikon’s litterature ?

With the Nikon D850 I've found that using a Nikon EN-EL18 battery rated at 2000mah and generic EN-EL18 batteries rated at 2600mah will not provide 9 frames per second in either the Nikon MB-D18 nor aftermarket battery grips.

It did shoot at 9 frames per second using a Kastar EN-EL18 battery rated at 3200mah in the Nikon MB-D18 grip.

Curious, because I have gotten 9 fps with the genuine Nikon EN-EL18 battery, and newer versions of that Nikon battery in both the Nikon grip and generics.

There seems to be some variations in the number of fps people get. I have a Nikon ELN-18b battery and a non Nikon ELN18a. I get 9 fps with the Nikon battery. The fps can reach 10 fps with the non oem (to do that the right conditions must be met, it is not systematic). That's actually why I bought the Nikon battery, out of concern that the non oem battery drives the camera at a rate that is too fast. I only use the non-OEM as a spare.
