[QUOTE="westmill, post: 55472, member: 9330"] A new camera... mmmmm.... most people start taking a few pics and study and play... testing the flash... loads of time checking the pics on the veiwer. The chances are, the camera did a lot more than just take pics. I think 9 times out of 10, people kind of forget just how much they played with the new toy. I find using the veiwer to be the biggest drain. Ive never had a problem with batterylife on the D300. A fresh battery runs all day and night with ease under normal use. I have two spare third party batterys as well that work better and longer than the genuine artical and were very cheap. I doubt very much charging and disscharginging makes any differance. Its prob more you simply play less ! As for the card, some come with junk on them. Some even have a program you can download for veiwing pics. Just open it up on PC and delete all files :) [/QUOTE]
