Thanks everyone

Im thinking if Id shot the Eightburst with the 450D Id lose a lot of the HA red around the exterior of it. Also Ive only got one battery with it. I will get a 2nd battery and when they finally become available, the little dummy battery that will plug into the existing Canon 240V adaptor. Thats the big criticism I ave for canon, they should have a plug in the camera body for the ext. power, not mucking around with silly dummy battery packs.
