The manual states alkaline or Nicads.  That being stated, you then must
take into account when the manual was written, i.e. before the advent of
NiMh cells.  To my knowledge, Nicads and NiMh cells behave almost
identically with reference to discharge characteristics and voltage. 
The primary differences are in the area of charging, memory, and
capacity.   Therefore, you should have no problems using NiMh's in your
F280.
IMHO,
