Just to throw in a second opinion, I use 1350mAh NiMH rechargables in my BP-50 Elan IIe setup just fine.
Very occasionally the BP-50 doesn't get mounted correctly, and the camera says "battery empty" even with freshly recharged batteries. Unmounting and mounting the BP-50 usually fixes this problem. I have done as many as 40 rolls of film a day on a single set of rechargables. Lars > Hello Luca, > > Exactly what type of AA batteries have you been using?
