ital photography has opened up a world of possibilities for the amateur camera user nike shocks shoes, but one of the main benefits is surprisingly mundane: the rechargeable camera battery which comes as standard with many gadgets. Compare these new power packs with the infuriatingly weak batteries used in many old 35mm compact cameras - expensive and only sold in specialist stores. No contest!
However, whilst it's easy enough to get your camera up and running again, there are ways to ensure your rechargeable camera battery not only keeps going for longer between charges, but also has a long life span.
Right from the start it is wisest to follow the instructions given. When you first charge up the battery, it is most important that you leave it on charge for the time specified. It's hard to be patient when you have a new gadget that you're longing to use. But sit tight and let it charge for the correct amount of time. This initial charge can act as a catalyst in switching on the battery's power - leave it for less and you could end up with a shorter battery life.
There's no need to worry about 'battery memory' issues, however. It wasn't a myth, but it only applied to the old rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium (or Ni-Cad) batteries which suffered from crystal formation during charging and use. The battery charge and discharge is eventually blocked by these crystals, but the Lithium battery packs that come in cameras and mobile phones are not subjet to this problem.
The old advice was to fully discharge your battery before charging nike shox clearance, but that doesn't apply to the Lithium battery. In fact, charging little and often is a good idea. Unless you use your camera every day, you might not need to charge it that often, but it would be crazy to let it die mid-shot before you remember. Not only will you probably lose the shot you just took, but you'll also be stuck without a useable camera until you've given it a good 8 hours of charge at home.
Video shooting is both power-hungry and memory-munching, so if you're going to be filming a special event, make sure your battery is fully charged and your memory clear.
If you find your camera frequently runs out of juice Nike Shox NZ shoes, you might want to tweak the settings. Simple changes like ensuring the power-save mode is switched on can make a big difference. Your LCD display uses a lot of power, so having a short shot-preview cuts power use, as does minimising the time you spend scrolling through shots or replaying videos. It should be easy to find the settings to make these changes in your camera menu. If not, check your manual.
If you've got a duff battery - and even the top brands are not immune - replacements can be purchased in photography shops or from online stores. There's no need to discard a good camera simply because the battery is not offering you maximum use. Some good photography stores stock high quality unbranded replacement batteries for your camera, usually at a much reduced cost compared with the original items. Many people find they get more use out of the compatible than they did from the original, and they can be a great power back up!
It's easy to be cynical about big business motives - perhaps they're hoping that if your battery dies you'll buy a new camera. Perhaps they concentrate their research funds on camera development at the expense of their batteries.
If your battery is letting you down or you think you may have neglected it, there's no need to get rid of the camera. Just make sure you look after your new battery to get good value for your money. |
