Why?

When a camera that uses proprietary batteries runs out of power, you have no choice but to plug the battery into a power outlet to recharge it. This requires an available outlet, a battery charger, and, if you’re in a foreign country, a power converter. If access to an outlet is ever in doubt, or if you don’t want the hassle of carrying cords and chargers, then the limitations of this system are obvious.

You have the option to purchase the proprietary battery pack your camera uses – but they can be expensive and how many will you need?

If you use a camera that uses AA-size batteries when batteries run out of power on a trip, you can simply throw out the old batteries and drop in a new set of high-performance AAs like the Energizer E2 Lithium line. Two or three sets of such batteries can usually take you through a 10-day trip. If you’re out of high-performance batteries, you also have the option of using standard alkaline batteries, which are available anywhere in the world, and make a cheap and convenient source of backup power (though they only offer a fraction of the life of high performance batteries).

Before you buy check. Get a camera that uses AA batteries if you travel. My Canon PowerShot is one such camera.

We all must have seen a peacock with its tail spread in 180 degree or resting downwards. During my trip to Tiruchendur Temple in July 2011, I was lucky enough to capture a peacock hackle it’s tail in a perpendicular fashion.
