After ~450 pictures and a lot of playing (I've also used the USB cable to load the pictures to my PC), the CR-V3 (supplied with the camera) finally died. No warning, I've left the camera in it's bag for 2-3 days, battery status showing full; when I took it out it showed 'empty'. So I 've made myself a Christmas present (as Santa was too busy promoting Coca-Cola): 2 RCR-V3 with a charger. 3V and 1100mAh, btw. I can't say more for now, just that they seems to work OK - no difference from the CR-V3 batteries. I can't even recommend the brand, the manufacturer didn't bothered to put it's name on them. -- Best regards, Alex Sarbu
