Both my DS bodies are able to obtain 500-700 exposures per charge
with the Power2000 NiMH AAs, rated at 2400mah. They do it consistently.

I've been using the *ist-Ds while my D needs repair and it seems to
me that the Ds sucks down batteries much faster the the D ever
did. Anyone else have any comparable experience. As an example, I
could put a set of 2500 mah NiHMs into my D and go for a week of
light use or several hundred exposures before having to worry about
running out of power. With the Ds I'm lucky to go a day, and
couple of hundred, more likely less than a hundred exposures before
switching batteries. The batteries are about a year old, but they
are the same ones I was using in the D which was still working well
with them before I stopped using it. Just curious about anyone
else's experience.
