No it cannot. There is a battery specifically made for it. (I'm selling mine with extras by the way &#128521; )

I did not find that to be the case with my SP565. I used Sony Brand Ni-MH AA rechargables in mine, no issues what-so-ever. AA rechargeable batteries are all pretty much the same voltage 1.2V. The only differnce is the mAh rating on them. I would always recomend buying a good brand named rechargable batteries because you really do get what you pay for. Maybe thats why Olympus recomends only using their brand batteries, so that someone doesnt buy cheap ones and then blame the camera for short battery life.

This camera uses a rechargable battery pack (EN-EL12). It is about the size and shape of a book of matches. Also be aware the camera does not come with an external charger. The only way to charge the battery with the camera as purchased is with the battery in the camera via a wall charger or cable link to a computer. For this reason I purchased an external charger and an extra battery when I bought the camera.

I am sorry, S. Jay. I have no idea what batteries it uses. It was a Christmas gift for someone else, so I never opened/looked at it. If there is a Best Buy near you, I think they sell these types of cameras so you may be able to find out that way. Sorry!

The camera uses four AA batteries. I use rechargable AA batteries in my camera, and they work great.

No, the camera has a rechargeable battery. That is the only thing you can use for it.

Yes, actually I use rechargeable batteries AA. I have two brands, phillips and sony, and Sony batteries work much more better. If you use Sony batteries around 2000 mAh (I think mine are 2100) camara will last a long long time. Sony charger worked excellent with sony and other brands batteries. Besides that, this canon take good pictures with the right day light, not at noght (like most of its kind), and flash consumes a lot of battery and takes some time to recharge after the light. But for the price, is great. The optical zoom is good, the digital is not. And finally, it has also manual settings. Yes, actually I use rechargeable batteries AA.

Thanks for the info - I used the link and got a response within 15 minutes - and it's midnight here on the west coast!According to Kodak Information and Technical support, "We don't recommend the use of Ni-MH batteries with the Z812. Although these batteries will fit and work, they do not give satisfactory performance, yielding a smaller number of shots than people expect. The following are the batteries we recommend: Kodak lithium digital camera battery CRV3 Kodak Li-Ion rechargeable digital camera battery KLIC-8000"So - my conclusion from this is: Don't buy the kits shown here on Amazon as the batteries will be disappointing.And if you have questions - go to the source!

This camera uses a Nikon LITHIUM ION BATTERY number EN-EL19. It is a 3.7V 700mAh 2.6Wh battery. I have a Coolpix S100 and have replaced the battery. I would not trust any make other than a Nikon. I have tried another brand with little luck.

Yes, can use rechargeable batteries, but I purchased a rechargeable battery box: http://www.amazon.com/Stealth-Cam-12V-Battery-Box/dp/B0015ZWSMW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1376575331&sr=8-3&keywords=wildview+trail+camera+battery which lasts more than a month at a time, is rechargeable and has made maintaining batteries much less hassle

We bought two of these cameras and sent them to our children. They use a battery pack that can be recharged. Our kids said they love their cameras. They both had Fujifilm FinePix cameras before but had lost them.

Any battery recharger that can accept NiMH batteries will work. I personally like my "MAHA MH-C9000" a lot. It's reliable, fast and doesn't wear the batteries excessively by allowing them to get too hot while charging. (Cheap chargers can do this and you end up paying what you saved buying the cheap charger on replacement batteries that stop working before they should.)

The battery is rechargeable. I bought it a couple of years ago and did not use it too much, so I gave it to my brother. He loves it because you can film underwater, but to be honest it did not work out for me since there is NO DIFFERENCE between this camera and filming with your standard camera (in my case a Sony Cybershot). Hope my answer is useful to you! Regards from Argentina, Gabby

Kodak camera's don't work well with NiMH batteries. The lower voltage of NiMH fools the camera into thinking the batteries are exhausted, causing the camera to shut down even though the batteries have plenty of charge.. Kodak needs to reprogram their firmware so it doesn't shut the camera down so quickly - all of the other manufacturers work just fine with NiMH. Unfortunately I believe they are doing this deliberately, so they sell more of their expensive proprietary rechargeable batteries.

I'v used rechargeable batterys in mine for over 2 years NiMH Rechargeable Cell: AA Size, 1.2V 2600mAh from www.batteryspace.com/

Any charger as far as I know that says it charges NiMH Batteries. I have used about 4 different charges for them and other rechargeable batteries and if the specified NiMH all was good! Anybody that does not use rechargeable batteries now a days is crazy! One thing to look at is the mah rating for the battery, for triple A batteries I use 1000mah or above and double A batteries about 2600mah or higher.
