as others have said -- dslr's have a long battery life -- mine lasts for 
weeks -- i've never counted, but maybe 2,000 photos. i think i probably 
average about 100 photos a day. i got a second battery (aftermarket) on ebay 
for $4.00 and a charger for $5.00. plus, i think in france, if your 
batteries are running low, a quick post to the lug would find you a d70 user 
in the area who would be tickled pink to buy you a croissant while your 
battery recharged.

i've always found luggers more than generous like this.

have fun on your vacation,

kyle

p.s. remember, in order to keep the film experience real, pause for 45 
seconds after every 36 exposures.
