Yes
I know the old saying goes, "Buy cheap, buy twice". But I keep looking at the battery grips on Ebay & I'm quite tempted. :D
If you've bought one of these & your pleased with it could you tell me the make & which seller you bought it off please?

Cheers,

Loz.

Btw, this isn't an attempt to circumvent the classifieds rules for noobs, I just want to make sure I buy a good one from fleabay. :)

I have Meike ones and they are fine for my 600d and 7d
don't bother with the cheap batteries mine were useless so had to buy duracel batteries from duracel direct
just get the Meike grip

Thanks Tony, I've got three battery's so that won't be a problem I'll go & have a look now. :)
 
I had a mike one on my 1000d , I was so happy with it I ordered one for my 650d the day after upgrading
 
I've had cheap ebay grips on all my Canon bodies, from a 550D right through to a 5D3, and all of them have worked flawlessly. I've had 2 or 3 Meike grips which have been excellent and I have a Vertax grip (www.pixelhk.com) on on my 5D3 and the others have had no indentification.

The grip for the 550D was the first one I got and I shot well over 10K photos on it before switching it over to the 650D that I've just bought for the wife. The only time I had any problem with it was when I hadn't shut it fully and the camera kept turning off, once I'd reloaded the batteries it worked perfectly and has done since.
 
Cheers I've gone for the Neewer one, fulfilled by Amazon & free expedited delivery because I'm a Amazon Prime member, so it will be here tomorrow. :D

You've all been very helpful, thank you. :D
