That sounds similar to my experience. I got abour 900 shots from the set that came with the camera, and a set of lithium AAs was good for only about 350 shots.
I don't use the flash, but also, I usually forget to turn the camera off. I have it set to go to sleep after 5 minutes. Can this be part of the problem? j On Mon, 13 Dec 2004 06:56:03 +0200, Boris Liberman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi! > > I am yet to try Lithiums.
