My first two sets of Maha Powerex 2300mAh batteries lasted over two years before they wouldn't hold a charge long enough for my taste. I recently replaced them with Maha's newest, the Powerex 2700mAh. I wasn't expecting that much improvement going from a 2300mAh rating to 2700 but the difference is amazing! What's more remarkable than how long they power the camera is the low self-discharge rate. Most NiMH batteries lose charge pretty quickly while just sitting on a shelf not being used (some in less than two weeks). The new Powerex still show a full charge in my ist-D after only occasional use over the course of a month. Highly recommended.
