It's because they have a tendency to slowly discharge themselves. Some batteries are worse than others, of course. For instance...I have a little D40 with a grip. If I leave my batteries in...fully charged...for more than 4 or 5 days, they will self discharge quite a bit. So I leave the batteries out unless I know I'll be using it quite a bit. On the other hand, I leave my batteries in my D200 grip, and they seem to last forever! But as a habit, I leave them out, unless I'm going to shoot.</p></blockquote><p></p>
