Tom, if you express a negative wish or hoe you are hopelessly negative. Although the idea of abandoning AA Cells is a drawback in my eyes, too. Not nearly an as severe drawback like abandoning aperture couplers, but a real drawback. Until today I have nearly only equipment that runs with standard cells, so starting with dedicated batteries would increase hassle a lot, as I would give up interchageability.
