Dear photographers,

I havent been around for quite a while due to my venturing in the field of working as a photographer. More detailed as Party Photographer.

But now I have come across a problem with my OLYMPUS E-300. Light at these events is often very bad and in the last time it gives my auto-focus real trouble to get focused, even when in not so difficult environment with little strobe-light. I am doing this now for 5 weeks (about 10/11 nights) and I thought that the "tiredness" of my auto-focus might be related to the battery of the camera.

My question to you is now if the slow auto-focus might be related to the slow failure of my camera battery or rather the batteries of my external flash and the support light?

Thanx for your help, if you are interested in what I do, link below (or above, never exactly recall).
