I am considering coming to Cozumel, if I can get the time off and if slots are still open by the time I find out. I am curious how many shots a restrained photographer would get during each day of shooting. I have been considering buying one of the stand alone hard drive units that does not need a computer to copy from a CF card, I believe they can only operate for two hours on batteries. What I dont know is how long it would take one of these drives to copy a one gig card. A 1 gig card only gives me 80 shots shooting in Raw. I'm under the impression you will be on location at sun up and sun down, will there be time in between to charge batteries?
