How to Replace a Dead Digital Camera Battery

For amateur and professional photographers alike, there's nothing more frustrating then when you're about to get a great shot with your digital camera and when you push the shutter and nothing happens. Replacing the battery only takes a couple of minutes and helps insure that you capture your next shot

• Watch the meter. Many digital cameras have a small battery icon that appears on the LCD screen. Keeping an eye on this helps you know when it's time to change the battery
• Examine the batteries. You can do this by either taking the batteries that are already in the camera out, or by looking through the owner's manual to your camera and reading to find out what kind of battery your camera requires. Some cameras take common battery types, like AAA or AA, and others take model specific lithium-ion batteries
• Make a trip to the store. Check out the electronics department for less common battery types. More common types should be available almost anywhere: drug stores, discount stores and convenience stores
• Turn off your camera and replace the battery. Many cameras have a sticker on the inside with a diagram that shows you which way to put the batteries in
• Close the battery compartment and turn your camera back on

Tips & Warnings

• Some batteries are rechargeable. Cameras that come with lithium-ion batteries also have a power cord that will recharge the battery. If your camera has this type of battery, you can recharge it many times before needing to replace it
• Consider investing in rechargeable batteries if your digital camera takes a common type of battery. The initial cost is more than it would be for disposable batteries, but over time you will save money. Getting two sets is a great idea, because then one set can charge while the other is in your camera

How to Extend The Battery Life of Your Digital Camera

Today, the digital camera is being used more and more by the average person and the analog film camera is rarely used these days. The digital camera also has many more functions that are controlled electronically

• Electronic Control Means Battery Power Consumption: True, the older analog film cameras used batteries for a few camera functions which included the flash, motorized film advance and sometimes the electronic control of shutter speeds. The modern digital camera uses battery power for many functions including telephoto lens functions, the LCD viewer display and of course the flash. Some digital cameras will retract the lens to its home position after the photo session is done and the user is just viewing the photos that were shot. This is a great power saving feature. The user can incorporate some personal power saving procedures that can even double battery life of any given type of battery. Probably the simplest approach to saving battery power is to plan your photo session and try to preset the camera function settings in advance if this is at all possible. My personal battery saving approach is to shoot my photos using the "available light" method. Sometimes this creates slight movement of the image due to slower shutter speeds either auto or manual but the natural rendition of the image will far outweigh this shortcoming. Available light photography is a totally separate branch of this art
• Using The Right Battery Type Is The Key To An Uninterrupted Photo Session: Many camera users do not realize that some batteries available will provide much greater use between recharge or replacement. Using Alkaline batteries are the last resort, though without question they are the least expensive. They should only be used as backup when either (NiMh) or (Li-Ion) run out of power and will give you the least amount of camera session use. The (Ni-Cd) can be used but they must be fully discharged before recharging because of their "memory effect". One must keep in mind that the (Li-ion) is the latest in battery technology and will deliver more energy after being fully charged than (Ni-Mh) technology. Both (Li-Ion) and (NiMh) batteries do not suffer the "memory effect" plagued by the older (Ni-Cd)
• As far as which to choose between Nickel Metal Halide and Lithium Ion is mostly a matter of cost. The Lithium Ion battery is more expensive than the Nickel Metal Halide battery. They both can be recharged before being fully discharged and do not suffer from "memory effect" characteristics which is a loss in the specified total capacity of a battery which is encountered every time the battery is recharged
• Today, the digital camera is being used more and more by the average person and the analog film camera is rarely used these days. The digital camera also has many more functions that are controlled electronically

Tips & Warnings

• Always carry an extra set of batteries for your camera
• It could save you a loss of a prize winning photo
