hi Tim,
Ironically, I just got my hands on a sidekick a few days ago, and will put it through its paces in the up and comming weeks.
When you're using AF, are you also using af servo? if so, how much of a battery drain is it?
The Swedish air force came by yesterday with two herks and seven fighters and stayed overnight and departed this morning. I was counting on there being clear skies and sunshine to give me a some extra stops, but not to be.
Lots of photo ops at the mountain range between Pangnirtung and Qikiqtarjuaq and the range between Clyde River and Pond Inlet....if mountains are your cup of tea. If you like wide open spaces then Baffin Island is the place to be.
When it gets really cold on winter mornings with clear skies, the senery is fantastic.
And after the dark spell of winter when the sun comes out, between january and late march we get lots of that golden/orange sunlight which is fantastic in its own right.
