Does anyone know what is the best non-rechargeable battery for a digital camera?
I have a Canon Powershot camera which takes 4AAs and the sales guy at Best Buy talked me into the nimh rechargeable batteries and they are NEVER charged when I need them (I feel like I wasted $45). I have small kids and have to admit it is hard for me to get into the habit to remember to keep the darn things charged. So when I want to grab my camera it usually is good for just a few shots if that.
I tried the new Duracell Pix batteries that say they last twice as long as the alkalines but they gave me about 50 pictures. Are the nimh my only answer? Why can’t the camera or battery companies figure out how to get as many pictures out of a digital camera as you used to get out of a film camera.
Thanks!
Nimh batteries (rechargable) are much better for high current devices like digital cameras (the flash and LCD use up a LOT of juice). Regular alkaline (non-rechargable) batteries will work but you will go through a TON of them. Lithium (not Lithium Ion) batteries will last longer but are much more expensive.
Best to buy a second set of Nimh’s. Charge one set and put in the camera. Charge the second set and put in the drawer. When you replace the ones in the camera, put them on the charger right away. It’s just like having a steady supply of alkalines.
