Answer 2

I Think You Are Missing-Out on Some Great Cameras. Why Not Try Using 'AA' Rechargeable Batteries? I Use These And Get Hundreds Of Shots Per Charge And If They 'Die' While I'm Away From Home, I Can Use 'Alkaline' Batteries Till I Can Recharge.

P.S. Some Cameras Get Better Battery 'Mileage' Than Others Check Websites For Comparison.

Answer 3

I would highly recommend a Canon PowerShot SD1000, however, it's priced at around $179. The SD1000 is the best buy for a rechargeable lithium battery powered camera and has its own separate battery charger.

Nevertheless, there are factory refreshed Nikon Coolpix S9s available for $130 which are also powered by a rechargeable lithium battery and comes with a separate battery charger. A unique feature of the S9 is the built-in 3X optical lense that does not expand when the camera is turned on, plus the slow-mo video feature that allows you to take timed frames per second/minute beginning with x seconds up to 10 minutes in order to provide a complete series of pictures, say of a flower blooming or even as a surveillance camera. The factory refreshed S9 is offered at samys.com. and comes with a full 90-day factory warranty.

Good luck!

Answer 4

I've been extremely happy with my Fujifilm Finepix F10. It uses a little rectangular lithium ion battery. I've taken over a thousand picture on one charge with it, although I almost never use the flash. The best part is, I don't have to remove the battery to recharge it. I can just plug the camera into a recharger. That way I don't go somewhere with my camera and forget to take the battery with me. (Don't ask.)

Answer 5

You are missing out on plenty of cameras by not choosing one that takes AA batteries....and I do mean rechargeable.
Remember regular alkaline AA batteries are not designed to power a digital camera. AA rechargeables are.
PS- I also see that HP is not the best on battery life.
A camera that is excellent on battery life would be the Canon PowerShot A560. But it takes 2 AA rechargeable batteries.

Answer 6

Not for $150. At that price range, the cameras use AAs. The best choice is to get AA NiMH rechargeable batteries with as high a milliamp hour rating as you can get (around 2500 mAh or better). I like the Eveready NiMH batteries.
