Just back from Mr. Pun’s with a new Canon 580EXII flash unit and CP-E4 battery pack. We now have almost instantaneous flash recycle with no less than 12 AA batteries powering the unit. Daisy did not like the test run…

and since one of my 2gig memory cards went walk about in Macau, I also replaced it with a new SanDisk 8gig Extreme III card. It has a capacity for about 474 RAW files. As the image counter on the 5D only goes up to 999 we will have to wait til this weekend to see how many .jpg files will fit on this card.

Ah, good old Kal, he found the missing 2Gig card, as I said “we are not the kind of people who lose things, we just forget where we put them sometimes :)”…

This is a good thing as we now have 20Gigs of memory cards for the cameras, I think this might be enough, well that is until the 1DsMkIII arrives.
