my First Choice brand battery report

[Isaiahfortythirtyone]

i used 4x First Choice AA batts yesterday to shoot my bro during his prom night. used in sigma DG500 super flash.

i fired only about 50-60 shots at almost full power cos i was using bounce. tehre was no discernible difference as compared to when i used my sanyo 2500mah batts in terms of recharge time.

the batts are still going strong and unfortunatly i have no way of indicating how long the batts last in my sigma flash as i have no compeltely exhausted it yet.

but for $4.95 for 4 batteries, i'm not complaining. but i would certainly bring backups always.

P.S you can get it from Shop and Save supermarkets.
