Why is it that most digitalcam out there will not have AA/ AAA batteries for their power supply source instead manufacturers uses proprietor battery models? Is it they are afraid that they will have no business since proprietor batteries are not as sturdy as AA/ AAA and unlike AA/ AAA batteries which are easily available. Proprietor batteries may be obsolete and run out of production by then if the digicam is still working it will still be a piece of junk and we have to buy a new digicam again

I find the Creative Divi Cam 525D an affordable digicam that can at least record motion pics at 30fps and a decent 640x480 but it comes with a proprietor battery
