Lithium or AA? What's best?

[TheGreatSatan]

I personnally like the Lithium battery better, but AA's are convenient when you're in a pinch. Opinions??

I don't really understand? You can get Lithium AA's, or is that what your talking about?

I don't usually buy regular AA batteries, I usually stick with the Lithium AA's. They last maybe 10-15 percent longer for most of what I have that requires batteries. The cost isn't too much more for them compared to regular batteries around here last I noticed.

He's talking about camera batteries.Some use regular AA batteries and some use a specific rechargeable battery.
I prefer AAs even though my camera uses a lithium and it is nice not haveing lots of small batteries to carry around

Brand-specific batteries blow. Get a camera you can put AAs in (preferably 4, not 2; my Kodak drinks like a non-specific Western European islander, while my Canon's four AAs last a few times as long. Use NiMH or lithium rechargeables in it; if those die, you can pick up a pack of AAs for a few bucks at the drugstore.
