Finally got the 40D out of the box and been reading the manual , getting used to the menus and getting a handle on what the basic programs do.
Yet to suss out how to manually set the ASA , know I do this up to 3200 in 1/3 step increments , in the advanced settings somewhere.
Happened across an assessories diagram near the back of the manual that indicates the camera can be operated using a DC adapter (DR400)

that is used in place of the battery or battery pack, but it has pecular input cable that plugs an AC-DC adapter (the AC-E2).
Seems the plug is particular to Canon only :

Is anyone using a DR400 connected pretty much directly to 12VDC adapter ? What 12VDC adapter is it ?
