[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 96629, member: 9521"] You should also add to the list a battery grip. For people like myself with big hands, a grip on these smaller body cameras allows for a more steady hold and significantly less camera shake. In addition, a grip will double the time between re-charges as well as give you an advantage when shooting vertical shots due to the placement of the second shutter release. And try not to go higher than 32g memory cards with 16g being ideal. Not so much because they're faulty rather it's an insurance policy against a catastrophic card failure and complete loss of data. Suffice it to say most of us would rater lose 16g worth of shots vs. 64g or 128g worth of photographs. Also, make sure the cards are a minimum 45mb/sec or faster. Nothing more painful that waiting for your buffer to empty in order to take another shot. [/QUOTE]
