Bob,
So right! I took my D3 to Africa on safaris where I was shooting both more
exposures and more bursts that I ever have, and I went several days with no
battery change. Some folks just have a way with power management.

I need to have a talk with my Nikons and ask them how come they're so frugal
with their juice. Since moving to Nikon with the D3, however many years ago
that was, I've _never_ managed to burn through one battery in a single day
of shooting. There have been days when I started out at half or one-third
charge and needed to change to a charged battery at some point, but if I
start with a fresh battery, I end with that same battery in the camera. In
fact, Nikon batteries are _so_ frugal that most times my spare battery has
discharged a bar or two worth of juice before it needs to go in the camera.
Not braggin', just saying'
