Default mAh level for batteries

Looking to buy some rechargeable batteries for digital camera is there a
limit on the mAh level or should I just go for something like 4300 mAh
for better/longer lasting power.


I wonder if the self-discharge rate of the high mAh batteries (over
2500) is above that of the lower eneloop type. You might be better of
getting two packs of those rather than one of higher mAh, as they will
last a lot longer in storage. There's little point in having a 2900mAh
set only to find it is unusable when you need it as it is no longer charged.
