Other photographers aren't competition regardless
of what they charge!

The REAL competition for a wedding tog is the cost of the reception, cars
dresses, flowers, cake etc....... Just make sure that you get
your slice

There's a special Minolta/Sony 135mm that's worth
it's £1,000 price tag for the bokeh

This test seems to indicate Eneloops ar the best for flashguns link

Powerex do well but they are £15/4 in the UK

I think they must have been just scared off whilst you were there.
I was there about 10 days ago and there were loads of them on the
feeders.... about 6 on each feeder.

My resident blackbirds and sparrows disappeared with the heavy
rain a few weeks back. Only seen pigeons and magpies plus a
few blue and long tail tits since. Hopefully they have moved
to where the weather is better.

I'm sure Eneloops are fine - but Uniross Hybrios work very well for me. They were better on test here too .. link
That 2009 test as out of date Andrew. He re-tested them 10 months ago

I'm surprised that he hasn't achieved the manufacturers spec. on any of them? He is charging them too fast, the batteries will be getting very hot and his charger might not be calibrated correctly. I've always found 2000 Eneleoops good for 2050 - 2100.

The 7th post down uses a better charge rate 500 mAh and gets up to 107% of claimed. He's using the same charger that I do BL-700.

Note: 7Day shop recommended by others on here only achieve about 83% of claimed.

EDIT: I did mention in another thread that Ansmann were
the worst I've ever used and this test hasn't rated
them either.

Unfortunately capacity doesn't indicate how well they will
work in say a K-x

Stefan's quite in order to ask for more information about
Adobe's White List and proof that it exists. I wouldn't
think it a good idea to hack Adobe stuff though and I'm
surprised that it can be done as easily as stated.
