These days, almost everybody who does a reasonable amount of work with off-camera flashes has switched from traditional alkaline batteries to NiMH rechargeables. Despite the significant up-front investment, rechargeables definitely save you money in the long run. The first sets of AA batteries that I bought have been wearing out lately & won't hold a charge very long. When choosing their replacements, I decided to try a new brand: Imedion by PowerEx (Maha). I've only used them briefly so far, but I'm definitely pleased with them.

Canon Professional Services
I've had to make use of Canon Factory Service several times in the five years since I got my first DSLR. I discussed those experiences in a previous post. I recently learned that (not surprisingly) Canon has a special program called Canon Professional Services that caters to professional shooters who use Canon gear. It's a cool program, and anybody who makes money with their Canon camera equipment should seriously look into it.
