Yup, Richard's has exactly the color I was expecting.
Good cold weather performance on the E-1. I don't know how long the
Canyon would last in those conditions but the spec only allows for 0 C.
It says it gets 400 shots at 0 C vs. 800 at 20 C. I had it out the
other day in slightly colder weather than that for about an hour. The
first battery failed in about 5-10 minutes with no warning but it was
nowhere near full charge. The second one carried on without problem for
the remainder of the hour and is still indicating a high state of
charge. I guess the only thing that matters it that it apparently can
last longer than me.
