Nice review, Chas. One cool accessory for hand held TASCAM is this external battery pack which can be very handy in situations where you need to record many hours but without AC power source:

I like the fact that Tascam really thought a lot of these things out. What's nice about this battery pack is that it's designed so that it can be attached to the portable recorder on the one side and screw onto a tripod on the other side. Compared to the CP-E4 external battery pack for my 580EX flash, it's a bargain price wise.

I use them on my 40D and 7D as fully manual flashes. They have the external ports for those battery packs just like the new flash units. Chas Gordon

But there are some aftermarket brands that are mentioned quite often on this forum. I don't know anything about 540EZ, but make sure it can take an external battery pack.
