Just after lunch, I got an e-mail from Craig (a pro photog cyber-chum) who drew my attention to the current deal at 7dayshop.com who're offering BP-511 look-alikes for GBP 14.79 (ed: even cheaper today 7 August 2009) with free delivery. Spooky coincidence, or what? 
At that price, it was impossible to say no, so two batteries are on their way.I found out how to reset the focus points: press the button at the top, right-hand corner on the back (with the little picture of the AF points like a cross and the magnifying glass) and twiddle the top wheel — ain't learning a wonderful thing.
I use Downloader to copy my image files from the microdrive. I have it set to delete images after a successful transfer. Usually (but not always) I reformat the MD in the camera, I noticed today that the camera reported 160kb used on the MD before the format operation and only 64kb after. Not sure whether that difference is significant, but I shall endeavour to be more conscientious about an in-camera reformat in future.
). She's certainly looking rundown. I took a bunch of shots: I'm still not convinced about the focus on this damn camera, 
but it could be me. I'll wait a while longer before making a final decision. Anyway here a picture that's not too bad (mild bad taste advisory).
Update: Sorry to anyone not getting the right picture on the previous link. It's fixed now — if you really want to see it. But here's a much cuter one of my cat, Oliver — (taken four frames earlier, maybe the camera is working OK).
