I have not yet tried to test the limit of a fully charged battery, but it seems to be more than 100, but less than 400. I have set auto review to off. I have discovered that the battery is not fully charged when the red light on the charger goes out. If I try to do a sensor clean at that point, I get a message that the battery is not charged enough. If I leave the battery in the charger overnight, I get a full charge and the camera allows sensor cleaning. -- Clive http://www.clive.moss.net/blog/ on 4/23/2007 7:54 PM grduprey@mchsi.com said the following: > Brian > > My batteries last around 400 exposures.
