DCResource provides a page where you can search for cameras with the
criterion that they use AA batteries, among other features:

I'm doing a bit or travelling this winter, and I would like to get a
camera that can use AA batteries. I've been looking for a list but
I've only been able to find a couple cameras, and I don't want to miss
a good choice because there was so much detritus to sort through. I
was looking to spend roughly 300-500 and here's what I've found so
far:


Be aware that while cameras may take a AA size battery, the common AA
battery will not work very well in a digital camera. It usually takes a
very high short pulse of current for the camera. The non recharbable
batteries will not do that very well. YOu may get a few shots and the
batteries will not work in the camera but will seem to work fine in a
flashlight.

Yes. Go for NiMh rechargeables if at all possible.

Any recommendations? The FinePixes have a lot of features for the
price, but are Fuji's optic components any good? I'm getting a little
overwhelmed with the choices.

Canon A60, A70, A74, A80, A85, A100, A200, A300, A310.

Recommendations? A75 or A85 maybe.

-Fuji FinePix E500, E510, E550 (not much info o these because they're
brand new)
-Pentax WR43
-some Kodaks
-some Nikon CoolPixes

Some Sony cameras use AA batteries (e.g., DSC-P93).
