Default Batteries

hey guys..

ive just got my camera and im pretty worried about running out of batteries half way through the day so i top up my batteries every night. i know its an awful practice, so i intend to get another set of batteries for my camera so i can run them flat with no worries.

whats a good brand of battery to buy if im looking for AA sized ones for my canon s3 IS?


thanks man!

Get PowerEx or Eneloops. If you don't shoot that often, use the eneloops as they can hold their charge longer.
