Don't really know if it's relevant, but I presently use a 1000d for imaging, and it's powered by a Jaycar pre-settable 12VDC-xVDC power supply that puts out a nominal 7.5V, although my digital multimeter says it's 8.01 volts steady. If you're interested, I can find the PN.
I then bought on Ebay a Canon external AC power pack which included the battery gizmo and the power cord. I cut the connection to the AC supply bizzo and soldered on a socket from Jaycar to match the plug on the 12V supply. Can send you details also.
To cut a long story short, for about $40, I have a good 12V external supply for my 1000d. Works well.
Cheers
