The PowerShot A410 uses two AA batteries, and Canon gives you two alkaline cells in the box. These will quickly end up in the trash, so do yourself a favor and buy a four-pack of NiMH rechargeables (2300 mAh or better). With two 2300 mAh NiMH batteries the A410 will last for 400 photos (per the CIPA standard) which is excellent. Buying higher capacity batteries will increase that number even more. Don't forget to buy a charger as well, as Canon doesn't give you one! Head over to DCRP to learn more about this digital camera from Canon.
