So I checked with Canon's web store and about fell off the chair. These are specialty batteries and from Canon cost $70.00 each plus shipping. I needed two. $140.00 bucks for batteries - I think not.
Oh well, back to my film cameras.
Today I made it to a local battery store. You want a battery, they got it. I never seen so many batteries.
$29.95 each + tx, two of them came out to less than one factory Canon. They fit my camera and my Canon battery charger. And for what's it worth you can't tell the difference between the Canon and the replacement batteries.
So I'm back in business. Gots to take some digital images now.
How I almost got in trouble: We were standing there talking to the counter lady and a Sangamon County Sheriff Deputy came in. He was in civies but wearing a nylon web gun belt with his badge and gun on it. Some model of little bitty Glock. As he walked past me I had the strongest urge to say: Hey, my guns bigger than yours. But thankfully the smart side of my brain clamped my mouth shut before I could say it. I'd probably still be in hand cuffs had the goofy side of my brain won out.
