I have this camera too. You need to have the expensive batteries made for electronics to get any real longevity out of a battery. Any of the cheap batteries or rechargeable batteries drain very quickly. If I were you, I would make the leap to buy a $50 - $60 digital camera instead of spending all your money on buying replacement batteries. Make sure the new camera comes with a rechargeable battery. And you will get better quality pictures with whatever is out on the market than your current camera. Good luck!
