Regarding the criticism of the Canon A6xx cameras' battery: Short version: I get four and five hundred shots per charge, and AA batteries weigh <1 oz. each. Longer version: I have used an A620 since November 2005. I used the first set of alkaline batteries for two weeks and 138 shots, and only changed them because I went on a four day ski trip and wanted fresh batteries. Those bateries lasted beyond the trip, and over 200 shots. With NiMH AA batteries I recharge about every two weeks, and recently shot over 500 photos on one charge.
