Product Rating: 4 star(s) BATTERY, BATTERY, BATTERY!!!!! REJECT

Comments:
It's a great camera. Good size, and a lot of features but for the battery life, With the standard AA battery the camera, if left on would drain the battery in less than 5 minutes, without taking any pictures. If you take pictures, then in lesser time...

QuickTake:

Pros: Good Camera for the money, lot of features
Cons: TERRIBLE BATTERY LIFE.... reject for that alone!!!
