Little off topic, but for your batteries,
The lithium e^2 batteries last longest for disposable batteries.
My Energizer rechargeable 2500mAh last longer than any other battery I have ever tried in my older Digital camera. Have used'em for 5yrs now and still last longer than Duracell or Energizer disposables.
no camera had to sell it, my front left knuckle needed replaced and it spit my wheel bearing out, so had to sell stuff for my local dodge stealership to repair
