i juz got my grip. took abt 9 days to get here. qualitywise its nt spectacular but certainly adequate.
scroll is less firm than the body scroll but firm enuf for me. i dont overshoot values or pics when scrolling.
buttons feel like the Dpad buttons rather than the buttons it represent..
rubber grip at the trigger area can see places where the rubber doesnt fit well. off by abt 3-5mm. the rest of the rubber grip is fine.
on-off switch is flimsy but will nt switch position due to gravity
overall build quality is nt the same as body but it doesnt feel flimsy either. holding the grip feels firm in hand and works without issue. for these few picky issues, its worth the $100 u save than buying the original

Hello guys,
Can i check with if anyone is experiencing lack issue with the video play back.
I am currently using a SANDISK EXTREME HD VIDEO CLASS 6 20MB/S card, i am recording on PAL format, but during replay of the video on my computer, i am experiencing the lack.
I mean, the voice and video shown does not syn at all. The voice appear to be faster then the video.
Can someone advise on how to solve this problem please.

Your computer is slow.

Hi guys,
can i check if most of CSers will go for tripod, batt grip or flash.
My understanding of tripod was to be used mainly for night scene. I had trouble holding the camera for 1 sec shoot during my HK trip. The only moment when i had really wish that i had a tripod was only during the night scene shot of The peak, other then that, there is hardly any requirement.
As for Batt grip, i am usually travelling in urban places taking portrait shots, which i feel if there is a batt grip for vertical shutter button it will be great.
Not much of an idea when flash photography will be useful.
I would like to hear some CSers whom might had experience the same issue as me.

can anyone recommend a decent tripod for a 550d and 17-55mm ISU... the lens seem to be heavier than the body itself...
i went for tripod 1st due to NDP fireworks... i guess if you're shooting events, then flash would be higher priority. still have yet to get a flash.
