| I recently got Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P41 Digital Camera. I'm wondering what batteries i should buy that last a bit longer, and what's a good battery recharger? I'm not looking to spend over 40-50 $. Thanks. |

Check at target they have Energizer rechargable battery + charger packs pretty cheap ( compared to getting the same item at best buy and such ).
If you look you should be able to find a model that runs with an external ac adapter .. Major ++ .. that means the charger runs on 12 volts and you can go to like radio shack and pay 5 bucks for a dc car cord that will work with the item and then be able to recharge batteries in your car :) |

I used to be against the propriatary batteries that come with cameras nowadays, but the one on my Poweshot G6 is great. Lasts about 300 shots. :) |
You should also try on ebay for batteries
A lot of people sell after markets / oem speced batteries and they are usually as good
At my job we can get batteries that usually cost around 50+ $ for around 6$ |

The higher the mAh on the battery, the longer it will last. I had some Energizer 2100mAh recharchable AA batteries with my old camera, they would last a full two days with no flash, while regular batteries (one use) would quit after like 3 hours :wtf:
So look for that. It usually says it on the battery and the package. |

yea recharchable batteries are great.
i bought a digital camera a month or so ago (olympus d565)
and immediately within 2 days i bought 4 NiMH batteries and a recharger at walmart for about $22, found some decent 2300 mah ones. i believe you can now buy them in 2400. pretty damn great deal. i have probably saved an arm+leg so far on batteries. |

AA batteries is just great, but "unfortenately" I have Lithium (spelling?) myself, it does last for a good 300+ shots with blitz of course :)
Now Im currently drooling on a Fujifilm Finepi S7000 (ahhh) It got Xd cards as wells, which fits me perfectly since I have 128*2 and 16. Its damn cheap too I tell you, "only" 680 $ |
