Tip: remember to take backup batteries

It’s known since the day people started to use batteries: remember to either charge it, or take backup with you. I was shooting some important statue, and after the second shot it said ‘Change battery pack’. Oh, well, it’s lunch time anyway, and I headed back to the hotel just to charge my battery.

Odd, but walking around without making pictures isn’t fun anymore.

That’s one of the reasons why proprietary batteries suck. The other important reason is that they are expensive (important when you have to replace them for any reason).

ok, cameras using 2 open standard AA batteries may be not as thin and sexy; but my Powershot A570 IS is thin enough to fit in my pocket, and on my last holidays I only had to replace them once!
