Bill is correct. Also the no load voltage is much higher than the full load 
voltage. When your EVM is showing 1.4V the cell is probably down to 1.0V at full 
load. Alkalines are funny that way. NiCad and NiMh hold their voltage under load 
until almost fully discharge then die suddenly.

What I don't get is why the D works so well with Ni-Mh that are lower 
in voltage.

The camera isn't as voltage sensitive as it is current sensitive.
NiMh batteries put out something like 3 times the amperage of alkalines.
