The Turbo Z is also quite an expensive option. When you take into account the cost of the Turbo Z and the connecting cord, your looking at quite a few $$$ spent in total. Perhaps if the original poster had suggested a budget range... ;-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Good point. One alternative would be buying a used Turbo or similar on ebay. Doesn't Canon have its own battery pack for the 550EX? *********************************************************** Peter, ... and that's precisely why I had specified Canon packs in my original email :-) I'm hoping for something close to $250. How about sticking NiMHs in a Canon Compact Battery Pack or Transistor Pack?
