Hi Michael and list, With digital cameras it's best to use NiMh's, I have a Kodak DC-240 I use (need to get the close up lens for it for meteorites though) and when I first got it I used the alkalines. I'm lucky if I got 10 pictures off before they died. Switched to NiMhs and what a difference. I use Maha batteries and their C204F charger. For high drain devices like digital cameras, flashes, etc. they are the ONLY way to go. I recommend Thomas Distributing on the web for both batteries and chargers, I don't have the URL handy but a quick Google search will get it for you. Good prices and fast shipping. Just a satisfied customer, not an emplyee as the saying goes.
