I have some questions about battery packs and batteries for the SB910.

1) Do I have to use recharable batteries vs regular AA batteries? They (recharables) donĂ¢€™t seem to last as long?
2) Which battery brand(s) do you recommend?
3) Which battery pack do you think is best and why? (Under $100). I donĂ¢€™t want to find out that if I spent $20 more I would have gotten a ding gong battery pack vs just a dong one...

Thank you!!!

AA batteries give you the most flexibility -- you can almost always find some for sale in an emergency. I use rechargables but keep a set of cheap (dollar-store) carbon-zinc on hand too.

I've mostly been using Sanyo (Enloop) AAs lately -- they make a variety designed to hold a charge over extended periods of inactivity. There is some pretty good technical info on batteries at GreenBatteries.com, though I haven't checked their prices lately.

Thanks guys...

Another question...there is such a wide range on the cost of the batteries - $24-200 (+)...why and which one would you choose?

I ordered the Aodelan P12 External Flash, 24 Eneloop Pro Batteries, 1 - 12 slot AA/AAA Charger.

I received them...BUT I'm not overly impressed that the "speed" is that much better than with just my flash. Am I missing something about settings? (good grief I'm gonna feel soooo dumb if I missed something).

I've read the external flashes instructions but no information about how to set up the camera/flash (Nikon SB-910).

I'm willing to put the $$ into the External Flash IF it actually recycles faster than my SB-910 would normally.

Is there a better external flash out there? The price range is huge. I thought I was going to "middle of the road"...

I'll be interested to hear what you have to say about it...
