Solar charge a Canon 5D

Hello,

I'm filming a 6 month Jungle and Mountain expedition at the begining of 2014 that will be taking us through totally undevelloped areas of Papua New Guinea (See website for details www.patrickhutton.com). Charging my 5D is obviously a problem as we'll be months away from a plug. Does anyone have any experience/ info on charging LP-E6 batteries off a solar panel?

On thing that throws a big fat steel spanner in the works here.... It's an unsupported/ non motorised expedition so weight is a massive issue!

Thanks for any help!

Patrick
 
What's your budget? I have designed a few solar options for various projects and could design a backpack mounted charging solution with external soft solar panels that can charge as you hike with LiPoly batteries to save weight.
