I have learned my lesson folks. Never travel abroad and take your camera with you if you don’t have a spare camcorder battery to take its place. Because we both know what happens if you don’t bring along a camcorder battery – the moment that your initial battery dies, you will find out that very quickly a new event unravels right before your eyes that leaves your mouth open with shock, and that makes you really annoyed because had you had the camcorder battery at your disposal, you would have easily been able to switch them out really quickly and get back to your business. I have been shopping around online for a camcorder battery over the past two weeks, because I want to have one handy when I am traveling this holiday season. I have so far found several different and great online stores that all sell camcorder batteries for a lot less money than I had thought that they were going to cost me. The next time I leave town, I will be armed with the possessions that I need to assure that my batteries are fully juiced when shooting film.
