Nikon L110 : 4xAA batteries, costly both for your pocket and mother nature
|
The Nikon Coolpix L110, as many entry level cameras, works on 4 AA batteries. This lowers the price tag first when you buy your camera but you must be aware of the extra cost of buying either AA alcaline batteries many times a year or a full set of recharchable batteries with their charger. At the end, the bargain is not so interesting. Worse, using alcaline batteries means loosing a huge lot of chemicals in the nature, even if you return them in a recycle tank as we find in Best Buy stores and Cie.... Yet, Nikon did a great job improving the battery life of the L110 in spite of its 3" and 460 000 pixels as, according to Nikon, with 4 new batteries, the L110 should be able to record up to 840 images or 7 hours of video.
