Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #25 – December 12, 2017, 12:31:24 am When I had cameras that used AA batteries, I had three sets of nickel metal hydride rechargeable batteries and a dual voltage charger. I also carried a set of non-rechargeable lithium ion batteries, just in case. They have a long life but are too expensive to use everyday. Most cameras today come with dedicated, compact batteries, few use AAs anymore.Larry.
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #26 – December 13, 2017, 12:00:35 pm I use AA in my camera's flash. I keep rechargeable batteries in my camera bag for the flash and a charger. I have not yet found a 12v charger for the AAs but there are enough camps with hookups to get me by. I have found a 12v aftermarket charger for the Nikon En-EL15a batteries that power the two SLR cameras. It works on other batteries but the charger stays in the RV. I called BandH photo, told them what I was looking for and they were able to help.
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #27 – December 13, 2017, 03:57:15 pm Back in the day, there were several manufactures of Alkaline Non-Rechargable battery chargers. I used to have one. It seemed to work alright but eventually the batteries became less and less rechargeable. I eventually gave up charging my alkalines and that was that.Now, I wouldn’t think twice of recharging a standard Alkaline battery in fear of some catastrophe occurring. Maybe that’s just me. My Nikon EL 15 batts are great and hold a charge for a very long time. Always keep a spare charged and ready to go. That being said, I do have a tendency to miss place both the batteries and the charger on occasion. That can certainly put a damper on getting a shot. Oh well. There’s always coffee.My iPhone is always charged and gets some fun pics. Here’s one I captured from HGTV’s Christmas light competition the other day. So all you Snow Men out there, take care.Happy Holidays,Kent 1 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #30 – December 19, 2017, 03:14:08 pm Following Bill's theme and Kent's B and W, here is an image of an adolescent young lady I recently found under the ocean's surface. She was about 12 feet long and just returned from a journey from Hawaii at the "White Shark Cafe". This was likely her first trip.White Shark Café - WikipediaShe was hunting elephant seals and was interested, but I am too old and scrawny to be much of a meal.HD 6 Likes
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #31 – December 19, 2017, 07:05:21 pm Ok, so I’m not an expert on shark behaviour (or even my own at times) and I certainly don’t presume to know what sharks need in the way of personal space, but when reading of the “White Shark Cafe” and pondering the behaviour of the sharks that frequent the area I wondered if this just isn’t a place for these amazing creatures to get “centered” to set their compass straight and just get away from it all. https://youtu.be/RgWft8yUBZsSounds crazy, but who knows. We all need a good cleansing now and again. Perhaps sharks have it all figured out.Just sayin’Kent 2 Likes
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #32 – December 19, 2017, 09:59:32 pm Personal space? This one liked getting up close and personal. I resisted the idea of touching or petting them as I have been warned that they can turn around inside their own skin in a split second. Why test the hypothesis?No doughnuts were enjoyed prior to, or after this dive. HD 9 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #49 – January 25, 2018, 10:32:54 am Nice photo, Joel! We went to Manzanar a couple years back and really enjoyed the visit. Our docent was interned there as a child and had a very interesting take on it.I highly recommend that if you've never made a visit there that you do so. It's an eye opening experience!
