Hi all,
Thought I'd register on here to expand my horizons! I'm new to using a DSLR, but have had a 35mm SLR for 15 years and still consider myself a beginner to photography. I hope I can pick up a few pointers from more experienced shutterbugs, contribute and as I gain more knowledge and experience I hope I can help out other beginners later down the track.
My first question I'm hoping some of you may be able to help me with is, I've been asked to help out at an art show and I'm using a Canon 600D with single battery. I don't think it will last long enough for the show and have been looking at buying a battery grip. the authentic Canon grip is in the vicinity of $200 and is not in my budget, but I've seen aftermarket grips for much cheaper. Is the Canon just overpriced or are the aftermarkets just rubbish?
Cheers :)
