well yes batteries are the main prob.
I always carried a manual, doesn't need a battery if you have a light meter, camera alongside my all singing and dancing kit.

They'll* probably be flogging ones powered by ethanol cells in a few years. Apparently fuel-cell mp3 players are out next year. With a alcho-cam all you'd need would be a bottle of vodka in your bag ;)


*You now, 'Them'. The people who make gadgets and stuff, not *Them*, who are a different lot entirely, and not the kind of people you'd ever buy a camera from.

Check the selenium metering system...
