Fer goodness sakes, when will camera makers start taking advantage of solar
power.  Batteries are so much trouble.  Just think, a small solar panel
attached to a headband or special "photo cap" (brim turned rearward by
design) and plugged into the camera body.  Perfect for many shooting
situations.  A premium version of the cap could be made with embedded solar
panel "chips" which would capture the sun rays from all directions. This is
something that's way overdue.
