Which Batteries

I don't know if I've mentioned it but I have a new camera well, I've used the batteries that came with it , and replaced them with Duracell plus batteries, I've taken 1 or 2 pics (cough!! ) and now the battery low light is flashing, I was just wondering if there were any batteries out there specially for digital camera's or could I use rechargable one's, I've had a look at some rechargable batteries for cameras but none say suitable for my camera, its a Canon Powershot A630, Thanks
Christine
p.s it takes 4 AA batteries

Use rechargeables, Asda has some new types in, they're called Hama and they're rated at 2,700 mAh, you can recharge them over a thousand times, and they last quite a while.

Yeh rechargable ones are probably your best option if they take the AA size a camera will only take 20+ shots on normal AA batteries you can now buy Duracell digital camera batteries which they say will take up to 360 shots but for long term cheapness invest in a charger and rechargable batteries Boots do 1 for £14.99 + 4 rechargable AA batteries

If you go to Focus DIY or Homebase-they sell 'Energiser' recharchable batteries complete with charger.I bought a new kit last year for £20 which contains 4 batteries rated at 2500mh and i get around 300 photos from my digital camera per set of batteries (it takes 2).
