[Cdt-l] Camera question

[R Smith]

If you have some $$ to spend you should check out the Canon S100. I have the
S90 which is two models older. It weighs 7oz. is solidly built and takes
very sharp pictures for a compact. I carry three custom batteries which last
me 3-4 days each.  For a less expensive option consider the S95.
Dpreview.com rates both of these.

If you're limiting yourself to a camera that works with traditional AA
batteries, you're going to be very limited. These were more common a number
of years ago, but less and less now... Generally, the latest models are
going to have the best features, best quality, and also consume less
power... which means less recharging those customized batteries. You're
probably best-off getting a couple extra batteries, and put the recharger in
a bounce box so you can get to it every few town stops. Or, if someone is
supporting you from a home base, get a whole bunch of batteries and have
them mailed to you as you go... and mail them back home for recharging. You
might be able to sell the extras when you get done.
