What type of batteries are the best for my 2 mp digital camera?
I can’t seem to take more than a few pictures before the battery dies.
The disposable alkaline batteries and “heavy duty” batteries are a waste of money in digital cameras, those don’t have enough power.
If you take quite a few pictures, and often (you use your camera 2 or 3 times a week and more, and take 2 or 3 pictures at a time), then the rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (abbreviated NiMH) are your best bet. This type of battery has a lot more capacity than disposable alkalines. You can get a set of four NiMH “AA” or “AAA”, complete with recharger, at Wal Mart or other discounter for $10 to $15. “Brand name” NiMH rechargeables cost more, but I haven’t had any problems with the “off brand” recharables over several years. I’ve saved a mess of money with NiMH batteries by rechargeing rather than throwing out disposable batteries.
The problem with NiMH batteries is that they go dead after a few weeks, even if you don’t use you camera. If you don’t use you camera for weeks at a time, but still want your camera to work when you want it, you’ll probably want to use non-rechargeable (disposible) lithium batteries. They cost quite a bit more than other disposable batteries, say about $10 for four “AA” cells, but they take a mess of pictures, and don’t “go flat” after a few weeks like NiMH batteries do. “Eveready e2″ is one brand of disposable lithium battery.
Stay away from nickel cadmium (NiCd) and alkaline rechargable batteries in digital cameras. You’ll be disappointed, those batteries don’t work well in digital cameras.
