........after seeing a post by Rottydaddy........
Don't jump too fast if you're looking for batteries for your camera.......I have proprietary batteries too, and when I looked into getting my back-up sets, I went on ebay. I've never used it before but for the price difference, I decided to take a chance. (Where I live here in town Olympus OEM was $100 - non OEM was around $50)
On ebay I found two deals - one was two batteries, and one was for one battery and a two input charger(car or home).......total price I paid after shipping and exchange .....$46 Cdn
.......I may use ebay again 8)
.......oh yeah, both came from California up the coast to Vancouver Island......
I feel comfortable going out to shoot now with four batteries in total and two compact flash cards (512mb and 2gig) I can borrow Wendys extra xD card when I need more :-X
Wow, good advice; I will consider this for the next show... which is next weekend- yipe!
Yes, I'll never buy a cheapie replacement battery at a photo shop again...
