Whas the best "Battery Grip" for Canon T1i ???

[mypoppy31]

I don't know that much about digital camera battery grips and I'd love to get more info.
Yes, I'm tired of getting the "Low battery'" light on my camera. Would a battery grip give me more battery power?..

I know Canon sells theirs for around $110, so would it be prudent to buy a cheaper one on ebay?... and are the cheaper one's just as good as Canons?..... Please correct me if I'm wrong......can I put two (2) Canon batterys plus four (4) re-chargable NImH batterys in the grip?

I'd appreciate any info

thanks

Before getting my M3, I only used canon grips on my cameras. Some people have had great luck with third party grips and some have not - I chose not to risk it. As for batteries, you can use 1 or 2 of the canon batteries OR use the AA holder - not both at the same time.

Peace

I just got one for my t1i from linkdelight and am very happy with it.
