I do all my editing on a crappy laptop, 99% of the time at the kitchen bar in between baby-chasing-feeding-burping-chasing-changing-shaking-chasing-burping sessions. Nice!

Oct 13, 2011 07:41 | #4539 I've been wanting to try them out for a while... at that price, I pulled the trigger. If I hate it, at least they sell for more than that on the forums. •••••••

Which FL would be more useful to you? your right haha. i think both would be very versatile, but i should probably stick with the tamron for now since its angle is a bit wider. btw nrowensby, you are using the 3rd party grip and the tamron correct? how do you like them? i was thinking about purchasing a 3rd party as well, but wanted to get some inputs before i purchase it and same with the tamron LOL

Oct 13, 2011 11:00 | #4545 I love mine... I've had Canon grips on past cameras, and don't really see the point in spending 2-3x more unless you are just a brand-name junky. Performs just the same. •••••••
