Not with the OP's D3000, where the vertical shutter button of the grip operates the Infra-red remote function of the camera. The half-press for focus & meter isn't available, and a trip into the menus is needed to enable or disable it - can't use the regular shutter button whilst it's enabled. I have to emphasise that it's not a Nikon accessory.

Otherwise, I agree wholeheartedly.
