Hi Matteo and All, The Nikon D1 I used one summer was a real battery pig. However, there have been several upgrades in the models so I believe it is much better now. Moose Peterson has a great website on this stuff.
Here is one of his excellent digital camera websites: http://www.nikondigital.org/ My 5000 and 775 are fairly light on the batteries. But I can burn them up in a day if I use the LCD a lot, or do in-camera viewing and deletions. On another note, I use 265MB cards in them and I believe I get about 20 max-resolution uncompressed images with the 5000 and about 120 images with the 775. They are really different-use cameras. I also have the cable-releases/intervalometer for them, which is a feature I believe is not available for most other digital cameras. It is really a slick little accessory. Nikon does have some other battery options for the cameras, but I only have the single rechargeable batteries and the AC adapter.
