You might want to check this to be sure which is right for your
camera. I have several small Sony cameras that use AAA NiMH
rechargeable batteries. I think if you use AAA alkaline cells in a
camera meant to use NiMH you'll get into problems, they're different
voltage, 2.2v for NiMH and 2.5v for alkaline. If you try to recharge
an alkaline that could be bad too, they leak or worse under attempted
recharge.
Most equipment that takes AA or AAA is designed to use alkalines or
NiMH. So will charge NiMH but you usually have to switch it on some how
(in some cases it takes a different battery holder).
