I would look into getting a spare battery or two. There is a kit on Adorama (search google for Adorama, I have used them before and they are a good site) for $151 with a spare battery, case, 32 gig card and card reader.

Last year, a client sent me photos on a floppy disk
 I had to special order an external reader! She was still using her tried and true Sony Mavica .....A few relics from my desk drawer. The 100Meg Zip drive was the cat's ass. Also note the 8Meg Memory Stick

 I didn't have to leave my desk to grab one of these babys. I use them every day. To write notes on. They also make great bookmarks.

That punch card gives me a sense of dread and fear from the Engineering School days

360K floppies, 5 1/4" wide.

 Dr. Who doing a promo for PR1ME computer. We used a Prime 300 with 1.5MB disk packs that cost $75. You weren't cool if you didn't have your own disk pack.

I have VAX tapes here. The 1.5MB disk pack is at my house. Finding a disk drive to read it would only be slightly worse than trying to find an 8" floppy disk reader!
