Hippari Member 48 posts Joined Dec 2010 More info | Aug 14, 2012 01:18 | #9 Breaking trend, I cycle through brands. Of course, eneloops are a pick, but I usually go energizer -> rayovac -> eneloop -> pearstone -> repeat as I retire sets from camera duty on a regular basis. I've had a couple times where I'd go out and find that the batteries have gotten old to the point they don't hold charges like they should, or that I mixed some of those in with a good batch because they're the same brand. 5D MKIII | 60D | ★ | Canon 50 f/1.2L | Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS | Yongnuo 50 f/1.8
