Answer:
You received very good information already on the Lithium Ion batteries but you should also know that you must use the type of battery (not brand) recommended for your camera. Also... I just bought a Nikon with Lithium Ion and it says to remove the batteries when you're not using the camera because the camera draws too much even when it's not on. If I remove it the battery doesn't go dead nearly as quickly. Pain in the butt! It was expensive but I'm replacing it.

Some places still sell rechargeable Nickel Cadmium Batteries (NiCd), and these batteries cannot cut it for digital cameras. There are also rechargeable alkaline batteries and these aren't great either. The only type of rechargeable to get is Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH), and the higher capacity the better. This capacity is typically rated in milliamp hours. A medium capacity battery for a camera will have say 1600 MAH whereas a high capacity battery will have more than 2000 MAH. SOme even go as high as 2600 MAH. Get the highest that you can. One downside is that NiMH batteries go flat in the camera if you do not use them. In a camera that uses 2 batteries, this can happen in as little as a week. My advice is get a couple of sets of high capacity NiMH rechargeable batteries (2000 MAH or higher) and use these as much as possible. Also however buy one or two sets of Lithium batteries (non rechargeable) these last a long time but are wickedly expensive. Have one set of lithiums for backup in case you need the shot but the rechargeables are all flat. Soon as you can put freshly recharged batteries in and again keep the lithiums in reserve. Unused lithium batteries will last for years. Hope this helps.

I had that problem too, so I bought rechargable batteries and it's great! They last longer in the camera than regular batteries, and then I just charge them overnight and they are ready to go!

THE MAN
Energizer Lithium batteries in the blue pkg. So far they are the best I've tried. The sad fact is that digital cams suck up the juice bigtime. Not much you can do about it. Even rechargable ones don't last long. But I've had good luck with the Energizer.
