Just brought this camera and i inserted brand new batteries and they ran out within 1 minute, how stupid is that??? does anybody have any suggestions.
Also, do you think all the camera prices at the minute will go down at xmas? Do you have an optical viewfinder? Turn off the monitor and use it if you do. LCD monitors are battery hungry devices. The longer you leave it on, the quicker the batteries will drain. If you don't have an optical viewfinder so you MUST use the monitor, set it to turn off after the minimum time offered, such as 5 or 10 seconds. Don't spend too much time reviewing your pictures on your camera. Save that for the computer when you can use a card reader and not drain your camera batteries.
Rechargeable batteries are certainly the best, but if you do not use rechargeable batteries, get Energizer e虏 LITHIUM batteries (or the Duracell equivalent) and you will get much better battery performance. They cost twice as much as alkaline batteries, but they last four times as long. use rechargeables
prices will decrease just a little |
