I was out and about at an airfield yesterday and shot 510 frames on a fresh Sony battery with an end of life remaining of 48%.
I have always been sceptical of the reported battery usage reports but I have now seen it for myself.
This was used exclusively with a 70-400G with a reasonable amount of reviewing but no flash over a period of about 10 hours.

I am also very pleased with the performance of the new lens.

That seems exceptionally good battery performance. Were you recording Jpeg or Raw (or both!)?
Pleased that you like the new lens, it's a real corker, worth every penny

Kinloss/Lossiemouth?
If so I'm the other chap with an A700+70-400 G.

Philip,

All shot on jpg at highest resolution.
Not a big fan of raw due to the time needed for processing which I don't have to spare.

Heidfirst,

Yup I was that other wet person at the end of the Kinloss runway.

I'll post a couple of samples shortly.
