      is that a digital camera or is that a video camera?

      btw... stop leaving it on, and using the LCD screen all the time.. use the viewfinder.. and just how much flash photography are you doing?  is the flash being used all the time?

      i've used my Sony H9 and i've never run it past my first batt.. even after a crapload of pictures taken...

      as for my D70s, again, i've never run the first batt down either..

      or is it that 2 hours, you took close to 500 pics? teeth.png

      Paiseh, first time using Digital Camera... icon_redface.gif

      2hrs took about 90+ pictures...

      So meaning when taking pictures under the sun, better keep the flash off to save batteries???

      Mine's also a sony & it uses 2 AA sized batteries...the best way is not to use the LCD screen but use the viewfinder instead & use the flash only when you find the lightings are not sufficient

      viewfinder...

      imagine using the camera like a camera.

      that thing you're looking through is called a viewfinder

      without looking at the LCD.

      viewfinder is the small little "window" that you use your eyes to see the image that you're gonna capture...its like those old cameras which are still using roll of flim

      1 battery too. Sony T10 over here.

       

      Actually the 2hrs is bullsh4t lah... as long as you finish taking the photograph and close the camera, it can last quite long.

      At least for mine...
