Hi all, I am booked on the tour, it only takes 7 and now there are 3 places left. Small groups appeal to me more than larger ones. Been internet shopping today. Tripod, 3 extra batteries for the 5D MK II and the 20Da, extreme Sandisk 16GB memory cards. Lithium Ion 12v battery to power Kendrick heat straps for the two cameras; this is what Andy Keen uses. Couldn't find the 8AH battery in Australia, so its comming from the UK. Andy offered to purchase it for me as he is in the UK, but I wanted it home first to test it out. How many would make offers like that to a stranger?
Still contemplating if I purchase a fish-eye lens. Any thoughts from those with aurora experience would be appreciated. How often does the aurora extend more than 100 degrees in the sky? My 14mm lens will cover just over 100 degrees.
Thanks.
Also purchased a large Lowepro backpack with weather cover.
