Hey so I got some money lying around in giftcards and such that I wanna use up. Im kinda undecided, Ive got about $200. Should I get a battery grip for my 7D or a relatively cheap speedlight? Open to other things as well but budget right now is pretty close to 200. thanks
 
Could get a speedlight and some flash triggers for that, maybe even 2 speedlights and triggers

off camera flash is awesome
 
don't know what it's like for a 7d but for my t2i I got a knock off battery grip for ~$50 and it came with 2 fully functional batteries. Never had a problem with it yet and it's been over a year since I got it.
 
check out yongnuo stuff

They make some awesome stuff for someone on a budget to get into off camera flash

I have a yongnuo 560 flash, a bunch of 603 triggers, and some of their new 622 triggers. I also have a vivitar 285 hv that has served me really well.

Something along the lines of a 560 or two with 603 triggers would be a good place to start.

Check out Jamie's flash guide, too, some good info there if you're looking to get into shooting with flashes
