Purchasing X1d Batteries in London?

[William Howell]

Hello fellow Hasselbladders... I'm going to be in London next week and only have one X1d battery to work with.  I've got two on order but B&H pushed back the delivery date, and I'll only have one to take with me when I cross the pond.

I've tried to browse the web and find a camera store in London that sells X1d accessories, but haven't had any luck.  Does anyone in the area know of a store that I can pick up another battery while I'm there?

I'm not in the UK so can't help with a battery.

If you can't find one you might consider the "power via USB C" function that the camera now has It might be possible to get a small external battery and run that as your emergency power source.

Also make use of the low power mode by tapping (not long pressing) the power button.

Has anyone tried to externally power the X1D using the USB Connection? Will it fully support tethered operation?
