I have a Canon digital camera -- a PowerShot A1100 IS (12.1 Mega Pixels). It's a great camera, takes great shots and is very convenient to use. My wife & I bought it new about 2 years ago. Only has one problem -- it uses up AA batteries like crazy.
After one hour of constant shooting, it needs to have its two AA batteries replaced! I'm in Ireland at the moment, visiting various historical sites or (today) an outdoor garden railway museum, and I barely had enough battery power to get through the day. When I go out somewhere, I bring at least two sets of replacement batteries with me.
My previous Canon Camera -- a slightly older version of this one that I bought around 2008 -- had exactly the same problem. Is this a common problem with Canon Digital cameras ... has anyone else had this problem & have any advice?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
