battery pack? for what one ?!? there is a battery grip around $150, e-300 cannot use battery pack... i think fl-50 has one for the flash and e-1 also has one for the bracket, but e-300??

The street price should be approx a 10~15% mark down off the RRp.

btw if u do not require ultra fast cycling times it will be a waste of $$ .

If you dont need ultra fast refresh then you can do without it. I think the price u r talking about is from oly but not market price. Market price surely will be lessser.

I might need it, cause the fastest cycling time so far is by using crv3 battery, 5 sec. But if i buy their power battery pack, its only 1.5 sec with FL50 flash.
