How do you like your new camera?

WOW! It got there quick. Did you order it from buy.com? Don't you love those discount coupons! The only downside to the camera is the short battery life, so make sure you carry extra batteries with you.

Re: How do you like your new camera?

I've just begun to learn how to use it, this is my first digicam but I like it so far! Yes, bought it from buy.com w/ $30 online coupon from dealcatcher.com. I knew about the limited battery life but another owner attributes it to the included rechargables. I'll be getting another set of rechargables to help.

Re: Re: what model/brand?

Of course I do. But was I one of those that screaming for a seperate OT forum? nope.
And only because the chaoes last time, now the webmaster puts up multi forums, I think we should respect that and post in the right places. Otherwise chaoes would never have happened if some people didn't ***** about the OT posts in main BBS.

Not try to upset anyone, just speaking the truth here.

It's the included battery... those rechargeables are pretty crappy. Using standard Duracells or what not lasts for a long while.

Re: Re: Re: How do you like your new camera?

How long can I expect the included rechargables to last with moderate use? How long do regular batteries last?
