you'll still need to have batts in the 5600 still even with the EP-2, if i'm correct.
when opening the cover, you'll press down and slide out (vertically) and after its out fully, gotta silde the cover perpendicularly (horizontal) slightly so the cover can be opened fully and correctly.

Its easier to open it than keeping it close.. A few time, I accidently slide the door and open it when I try to pull the flash out of my bag. I think DCA one is tighter b'cos it is a new unit?

both of my 3600 & 5600 batt covers are pretty tight leh when there's batt inside... probably due to the elevation of the batts by the springs at the bottom?

Based on BHphoto pricing. Each cost abt $230 at convertion rate 1.66 for 10 pieces. Hope you all dont get it more than that pricing. Me wouldn't be touching any camera upgrade for the moment No $ and busy with new house. Might get the EP2 once every thing settled. Happy shopping!

so if 230, + shipping will be about 240-250 (depending on the size & distance & insurance) with 10 piece... i think someone need to come up with 2.5k upfront, or someone trustworthy and we pass the money to him...

also agree with Drudkh, does the pack help alot? btw in total there will be 8 batteries at 1 shot?

From what I know, anything above S$400, must declare GST lor. But if you lucky, they might let it pass. All the best on your shopping.
