I had three fully charged batteries before I left, but one (the first one I used) is several years old at this point and only charges to 70-80%.  I took over 1200 pictures and a few videos during that time.The first battery (old, weak one) survived until the 11th day.  Then I put the second battery in.  Had I started with one of the newer batteries, I might not have needed to swap at all.  I have image review off, but I don't remove the battery from the camera when I'm not using it, even at home.  It doesn't draw that much power in my experience.So, my recommendation is to get at least one backup battery and have all of your batteries charged...and have a good time!</blockquote>
