Should I change anything?

[L8ZRD]

Counting down the days until I can order my T3i. Here's what I have included in my upcoming purchase...

$610 - Canon T3i w/ 18-55mm EF-S Lens (Certified Digital)
$80 - 3 Year Warranty (Certified Digital)
$67 - Shoulder Rig (Amazon)
$32 - Canon 2400 Bag (Amazon)
$36 - Transcend 32GB Class 10 Card (Amazon)
Total = $825

Anything I should add or takeout?

Take off the warranty and add a flash.

I'd also get a few 8GB cards rather than 1x 32GB.

What would you recommend for a flash?

How is 3 of these? - Amazon.com: Transcend 32 GB Class SDHC 10 Flash Memory Card TS32GSDHC10E: Electronics

A lot of people will suggest a branded speedlight with TTL function. I have 5 with TTL and shoot almost exclusively in Manual mode (camera and flash).

+1 on loosing warranty unless your going to be unusually rough. With the money saved buy photoshop elements.

430 ex ii or the 580 ex ii.

As much as I would like to add a flash, I don't think that's in my budget yet.

Do you have any photo editing software? Then scratch the warranty and go for ps elements or lightroom 3

PS CS4, I have no problem. I'm not doing anything professional yet.

 

[marmots]

i wouldn't get the class 10 card either that camera can't write that fast

I was about to say, haha I got CS5, Lightroom, and aperture

You should have a problem with pirating software.

A lot of TPF members make income from their intellectual property. Advocating copyright infringement and the theft of intellectual property in such an environment is not a good way to get started on the forums.
