DIGITAL camera?
Question by que otro hay: DIGITAL camera?
i just got a regular digital camera. in about an hour or so of turning it on & off and taking various pictures, the batteries (that came included with it) ran out. I put brand-new duracell batteries in there, and used it 3 or 4 times just turning on & off to look and show pictures, and now those batteries are bad! so, what is a good option for that camera? Someone told me to get rechargable batteries. I have some, but will they last any longer in there? (so i don’t continuously have to recharge every time i use it.) is there any better alternative??? That really works. Muchas Gracias.

get a set of NiMH rechargeable batteries and a charger – they will last much longer than the regular alkaline batteries.

You probably need to use high capacity NmH (Nickel Metal Hydride ) batteries. I have a Cannon Digital, and a set of Alkalinse is good for about 15 pictures. With the High Capacity NmH batteries, I get about 60.
You will have no problem following the first 2 answers.
PS From the camera company or Radio Shack, buy a battery charger.
Yes deffinately get the re-chargeble batteries. They will last longer. My camera takes 2 AA’s so I keep 2 extra already chared in my camera bag in case the first ones die on me.
Rechargeable batteries will definitely help, but you can prolong the life of all of your batteries by minimizing your use of the LCD screen.
If your camera has an optical viewfinder, use it instead of the LCD to frame your shots.
If you have to use the screen to preview, program it so it shuts off immediately after the picture is snapped. This way, you’ll only use the screen when you need to.
Also, instead of passing the camera around to each of your friends to look at an image, gather them around and play the image for a few seconds. If you are taking video, watch it on your computer rather than your camera.
I added 50% to the battery life of my compact camera by following the above advice.
Hope this helps!
