Hello, im new to this website. I have 2 problems and I kinda need an opinion.
1. I have a Canon Rebel thats the grey color, and I kinda wanted a battery pak but i dont know if that will look wierd with the grey body. I know its kinda a stupid question but I just want to know what yall think.

2. I want a FISHEYE lens soooooooooooo bad but I cant find one thats great and that doesnt distort the entire picture for a reasonable price. I am 14 years old and money doesnt grow on trees.

Please get back to me if you can help or give me your opinion.

Welcome to POTN, IndyColt42.

I don't think the look of your camera really matters. Get the battery grip -- you'll love it. Black and silver don't clash that badly.

And to get a fisheye that is really a fisheye on a small-sensor camera like a rebel is hard ... 8mm Peleng is probably a good option.

But if you don't have good 'normal' lenses, I would seriously suggest you get some before spending money on a fisheye. Fisheyes are a specialty lens -- meaning you probably won't use it as much as you think you will.

Good luck!

Welcome to POTN Indy

My first DSLR was the silver Rebel. Got the Battery grip for it and felt it enhanced its appearance many times over. Better still, It felt better in my hands and I loved the functionality of the buttons when shooting Portrait.

Luke gives you good advice on the fisheye. You don't say what you have already, but seriously consider covering your basic shooting needs before going with the specialty lens.
