Nikon 900S - Filters? Memory Cards? Battery life?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

Does anyone know if anyone makes a polarizing filter for the 900S to screw into the 28mm mount? What is the maximum Compactflash mem. card that the 900S can accept and where is a good place to get from? How long does it take to drain a set of 4 AA alkaline on average? about 1 hr? I know varies alot with LCD use and flashes and AF but a rough number would be appreciated. I'm thinking of getting some NiMH - where is a good place to get from?

Thank you all in advance

1. No, but you can get an adapter from CKC power which will make it work with standard filters. I\The adapter costs $24.00 and is very good quality. 2. I have the lexar 64mb cf card and it works fine. Hardware street. 3. about 15 minutes if you use the LCD. It's a state-of-the art problem with lcds, NOT a Nikon "bug." 4. NECX; they go for $2.50 each and lower in quantity buys. Don't evern bother with alkalines, nicads, or those vaunted rechargable alkalines. Rich
