Need to Own A Battery Factory

I have a DSC-P30 1.3 MP and I love that camera for what I am doing, However it is no good outdoors. Now I purchased a DSC-P72 and I am sorry to say I think the buttons on front are to easy to touch by mistake and change your settings, the next thing is I don't like the pictures I have it set on Auto and Auto Flash and taking pictures under normal indoor lighting gives me dark and sometimes yellow or orange, I have tried so many settings and did so many tests, I don't know when I will have it set for my surroundings, that never change, I always take pictures in the same location same lighting but pictures are not good, not as good as my P30. The Batteries are terrible, I bought NIH rechargeable batteries and charged them for 20 hours and still they take a hand full of pictures then stop and have to recharge, totally no good, I like the battery that is in the P30 I have had that camera for 2years shooting everyday and have never run out of battery power. What do you think, I don't like the AA Battery System at all, and it is in most latest Sony Cameras. I love the way Sony is so easy to use, but maybe I will think about going to Canon.
Thanks
