October 31st, 2005 at 11:49 amJust my 2¢ but the rechargeable batteries are well worth the $20 inital investment, not only will they last for a thousand pictures, but it can save you alot of heartache. If your batteries get too low, the camera can have problems saving to the disk, causing an error and causing your pictures to be forever trapped on the card. I speak from experience.
