You excel at picking nits. It's unimportant, Cory. What's important is that the differential between shooting with the Live View enabled vs the optical finder alone is not that enormous. If the minutiae of the battery specification is that important to you, you could have looked it up easily: The Panasonic takes a CGR-S603A battery, 7.2V, rated 1500 mAh. For comparison sake, the Pentax K10D's supplied LI50 battery is 7.4V, rated 1700 mAh. My current records show that I get an average around 925 exposures per full charge with it.
