Only experienced it once before and that was almost 2 yrs ago. My then 340Mb MD flatted my batts after 3+ hours while my 128Mb CF lasted 5+. But they were used on 2 separate albeit consecutive days. T'was a Coolpix950 back then, in Hong Kong.

Read somewhere that MD does affect batt but have to go find the article... ;p
