The biggest problem with rechargeables is the internal resistance (or

That sounds like incredibly poor design. If the internal resistance is
limiting the current the batteries won't last long. Except on something
like a drill where the load varies and you need maximum power at times.

Funny enough the camera would manage about 50 pictures from 4 alkaline AAs
and about 200 from rechargeables.
