The Canon EOS Rebel T1i is best for photography amateurs and enthusiasts who just switched from point-and-shoot cameras to digital SLR. Here are some important Canon T1i accessories:

Camera bag

The Digital Gadget Bag 100DG is designed specifically for DSLRs. This DSLR camera bag is long lasting and comes with a water-resistant nylon exterior. The bag also sports padded interior dividers and easy-access storage pockets.

Standard zoom lens

The Canon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 EF-S IS Lens is a standard zoom lens, which features smaller size image circle. The focal length of the lens is equal to around 28-90 mm in 35 mm format, perfect for everyday use. The Canon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 EF-S IS Lens sports Canon’s own optical Image Stabilizer technology.

Flash

Canon designed the Speedlite 430EX II Flash to support the Canon T1i. This flash accessory is great for those who shoot reflective or high contrast subjects.

Memory card and card reader

The SanDisk 4GB Ultra II Memory Card has at least 10MB per second read speed and 9MB write speed per second. This Secure Digital High Capacity memory card is great for photojournalism and other challenging photo shoots like sports, nature, and fashion photography.

Lithium-ion battery

The Canon LP-E5 Lithium-ion Battery (1080 mAh capacity) enables you to capture around 1000 shots under normal temperature on a single battery charge. It is also more compact in weight and lighter compared to earlier battery models.

Good remote control

For a good remote control, get the Canon RS-60E3 Remote Switch. It is handy and helps you shoot hard to approach subjects. It can also reduce vibration for time exposure and close-ups.

The Bogen/Manfrotto 190XB tripod

For a nice tripod, get the Bogen/Manfrotto 190XB Tripod Legs with 484RC2 Mini Ballhead. Its leg angle release mechanism is ergonomic and provides great quick-action leg locks. The 484RC2 Mini Ballhead sports a precision-machined aluminum housing, an extremely hard phenolic resin ball, and strong die-cast construction.
