Oops...spoke too soon--they are Panasonic brand Nimh's.

I picked up (at a local auction) a set of six Eveready Nimh AA's, two
AAA's,
a charger, two AA-to-C adaptors and two AA-to-D adaptors, all new in
unopened package the other day.

The price? $10.00.

you can find NMH batteries with 1600 to 1900 MaH capacity on the web
for about $1 each in quantity of 24 or more.

regular alkaline batteries in a digital camera are useless.

there was thread here about battery life, and some of the new
technology
wrt digital cameras (eating AA Alkalines). i got suckered into buying
another camera, and guess what, it really EATS AA'a, changing batteries
would be a full time job.

the previous owner said he used 1600mah NMiH rechargeables and got
50-60 shots, some w/flash, some without the lcd on, but was generally
happy.

Question: before i even think about buying into an expensive set up
for only occaisional use, i need to know what is the actual capacity of
the current crop of AA Alkaline battery. googling now, but find
nothing
beyond suggested uses on manufacturers sites.
