1. Digital Camera Batteries - The Heart of Any
Digital Camera

2. Digital cameras have now gained massive popularity and many
of us now have digital cameras to shoot quality pictures. At the
heart of digital cameras is the digital camera battery, which
needs periodic charging depending upon how much you use
your camera. The problem with digital camera batteries is that
they draw a lot of power, since they power up the LCD
screens, the flash, and the internal circuitry as well.

3. Since these cameras can consume a large amount of power in a
relatively short time, I would recommend that you use cameras
that utilize rechargeable digital camera batteries only. This will
help your batteries to live longer.

4. You can easily tell about the status of your battery by looking at
the icon on the LCD display. If you buy rechargeable batteries,
you should also be able to find a good charger that charges
them easily. A good idea is to carry at two batteries when you
go clicking about with your camera. The spare one can come in
handy if the camera uses up the regular battery faster than you
can imagine.

5. Since a charged battery can get completely discharged if left
around, it is advisable to use it as quickly as possible. This will
prevent the battery from going through an extra round of
charge and will increase its life as well. Be sure to know that a
film camera would consume lesser power than a digital
camera. This camera is loaded with features that need power to
run, so your battery is under a lot of load to deliver power all
the time.

6. Since your camera is made to work in nearly all light conditions,
the circuitry also needs power to calculate the right exposure
and take the right picture. Moreover, there are features like
auto focus, continuous video, zoom, multiple flash, and other
handy features which burden your battery to a considerable
extent. So, it is always advisable to conserve battery power
wherever possible.

7. It always saves battery power when pictures are taken in natural
settings. Also, try and switch off your camera when you are not
using it. This will help you save your battery power. It always
pays to keep your batteries in a cool and dry place since
batteries are prone to self discharging, and you may find that a
recently charged battery is really no good after a while. So you
can have great time with your camera, and save on battery
power while taking great snaps all the time!
