      Cons: Too much purple fringing / chromatic aberrations ; Colors seem dull at default saturation ; Mediocre low light focusing (night shots did not come out, difficulties around the office) ; Sound in movie mode appears to be out of sync with video (640 x ...

      Verdict: lithium-ion batteries, which should provide you with hours of battery power (sorry, I don't have exact numbers)
