Hello all,

Just a really quick question for Canon 580EXii users or anyone using the higher power flash guns.

What batteries are you finding to be good?
By good I mean longer lasting quick recycle time etc.

Thanks.

I've been using the 2900mah AA's from www.7dayshop.com in my Nissin Di866 for a while now and I've just got a 580EX II and put them in that. For the price the batteries are superb.
In my Di866 I took nearly 900 shots on 1 set and the recycle time was fast as well, especially after burst flashes. In normal flash I never had to wait for the flash to recycle, it was always ready before me.
 
Eneloops.:):thumbs::thumbs:
 
I use the 7DayShop Eneloop style batteries - they seen great to me.


So have I, but a couple of sets have died on me after only maybe 10-20 recharges, whereas my (older) Eneloops are still going strong....
 
Eneloops (stupidly cheap from the spam masters at 7 day shop) but go for the 2000mAH (white) ones as Graham says, or Vapextechs.

Guideline - the smaller the capacity (mAH) the more reliable they will be.
