[plug] [OT] Digital still camera batteries

[Quintin Lette]

I use Duracell rechargeables in my digital camera (Sony 5mp) they are
2100mAh NiMH and last about 256mb ish of my memory card :) and they
cost about $18 for 4 at Coles so I'm sure you can source cheaper, but
you may need a charger too! :)
