You must have browsed for the topic before posting.. There are many requests similar to your thread

firstly sorry that i made as post, i cudnt find any post with strict budget of 5k.

what about this one?Olympus FE-47 Digital Camera | eBay

My advice may be uncommon but I selected Panasonic DMC-F3 and Olympus VG110

Reason is that Sony, Nikon and canon require AA pencil cells in there cams which is not a good idea...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-F3 | PhotographyBLOG

if battery is not an issue (i can manage with AA), what would you suggest?

and what about the ebay link i gave? the olympus FE-47

also i found out that Nikon coolpix L23 suggested by Anish will suffice my friend's needs...

yaah definitely L23 is a good cam...if its OK with AA pencil cells then its fine

Nikon use AA Ni-MH rechargeable battery. I am using it. And I should say it is very much convenient. Sometimes when you run out of charge, you can at least use normal AA size batteries and click some photos.

Once during a jungle trip this happened to me. I managed to find few Eveready AA batteries at a pan-shop in a village and clicked some photos. And when you are back home, you can recharge your Ni-MH batteries.

thanx alot for the help guyz.. one last thing, which rechargable battery is best for use? (company, battery type, power)

Most cameras will have offer where they provide free rechargeable batteries and charger. Look out for those.

I got free rechargeable batteries and 4GB card and pouch with Nikon. I also got a watch free which is this New Year offer.

Battery Brand :UNIROSS. I used other brands before. This I like much.

 

[bharat_14101991]

yeah i'm getting card,2 batteries, charger and pouch too + some offer from zoomin(NIKON COOLPIX L23 + Rs 5000 in FREEBIES from ZoomIn | eBay)

but i was asking in general, mean which is the best brand for rechargeable batteries and battery's type. so that i can buy those in future when needed.

I have a Uniross 1Hr charger....I use it for recharging my 4 uniross AA cells of Flash

Its superb and great performer...u should dump the normal free 8 hr charger and get at least 2 hr or 1 hr charger

UNIROSS .... I got UNIROSS with my camera so I didn't have to buy extra. UNIROSS is great.
