Some important things to note:
1. These devices gobble up cheap batteries like you wouldn't believe. It
isn't worth "saving money" by buying cheap batteries. Dollar batteries
may only give you three shots.
2. Even high-end batteries aren't as good as nice rechargable batteries.
(It's a myth that rechargable batteries aren't as good as disposable
alkaline batteries.) http://www.greenbatteries.com/batterymyths.html
We've had much better over-all luck (and signficantly cheaper overall)
using nice rechargable batteries with our digi cams.
Cheers,
