i also have an hp camera, does yours take AA batteries? i am having a hard time with these rechargable things. i keep 4 on a charger (the ones that came with the camera wont charge on my charger) and when i put a fully charged set in, sometimes i can only take 2 pics before the batteries die
what are you doing for battery?
A steady surface, or a tripod preferably, will improve the closeup shots. Got mine off of ---- in a package deal with a macro lens, wide angle lens, cleaning kit and such. Came in the package, or you can order them for about 15 bucks.
Cindy - mine only takes 2 batteries. My dad got me 4 rechargeable batteries and a charger when I had my last camera that took 4 batteries. Make sure you are using NIMH (nickel metal hydride) batteries. When I used ones that weren't NIMH - I had the same problem that you do.
Currently I have Rayovac. They work great! The only time mine use a lot of juice is during the downloading to my computer. I need to get an adapter for that. HTH! Good luck!
yea, these are NIMH too, and my camera holds 2 also. the ones that came with the camera are bule and silver and the ones i got (energizer) are green and silver. i also have the charger that holds 4 batteries
thanks, maybe i will switch to rayovac. i'd like to do the blue/silver ones but the charger just blinks when i put them in the charger and wont charge (like i mentioned above)
oh well just another day in the life and times of cindy, if it can go wrong it will
thanks for your help!
