I picked up two sets of the Energizer 2500maH rechargeables at my local Target after I bought my DS2. I think I paid $20 for the set with the wall charger, and $10 for the additional set. So far they seem to be working nicely, though I haven't done a full day's shooting with them. It seems that with the NiMH rechargeables, the battery indicator goes from full charge down to empty very quickly when the batteries are exhausted, so it's probably a good idea to keep a fully-charged spare set in the bag with the camera. I'll probably pick up a third set of batteries sometime soon to have in rotation. -Mat -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
