Make your camera battery last even longer!

Last time we discussed how can you save camera battery life. Well, we hope you’ve been trying to and this week we’ll even throw in some extra tips for you. Like what do you do if you’re stuck in the middle of the desert with one battery left, and it’s half empty? I’d say you should look for water and stop wasting your time thinking about photos, but still here are a few things that might work.

Sometimes we tend to forget that every click on any button consumes some amount of energy. One of the power threatening functions is "continues focus." Of course that you should focus but only when you are planning to take a photo and minimize the pressing half down thingy - it awakes every single part of the camera and wastes a lot of battery power.

Using flash is also a major power drainer so try to avoid this as much as possible. Choose higher ISO or use an external flash with its own batteries instead.

But the best tip we can give is carry another battery. That way you won’t have to think about your camera power consumption all day long and just have fun shooting.

But you don't have an extra battery? No more excuses! www.photo4less.com is fully stocked and ready to deliver every camera accessory you're looking for.
