That is the beauty of AA batteries, even NIMH ones.
My buddy with the Canon Rebel has spent a couple of hundred dollars
on batteries for his camera.
I've spent less than 100 for my battery set, and I get twice the life
he gets.
That is odd. The Canon supplied batteries are expensive, but for a couple
of batteries it shouldn't come to three figures, and I'm astonished you
get twice the life. Of course there may be other factors involved such as
LCD on-times, IS lenses etc.
I think Brian bought an OEM battery, and I suspect he chimps a lot more than i do.
