First time digital user ..bought if for my son's b'day party.

Nice to own a digital camera .. or so I thought. Took 25 photos and the batteries went phut. They did not tell me in the manual or at the store that the batteries wont work long. And I kept on clicking all the fun until it was time to cut the cake. The camera just conked out. I did'nt care what the problem was having missed out on the main part of the event. Then I read up the websites and now I know about NiMh batteries and the rest. Learning how to recharge and stuff.. battery durations and other battery terms. But my old trusted kodak point and shoot worked real well. SO what if you have to wait for prints to see how they turned out. At least it works and does not need constant recharging. All you got to do is throw the two AAs and throw in new ones and you are set for a roll of film. Digital Shigital .. who cares.
