Vivitar ViviCam 3930 - mystery of the battery solved The Vivitar ViviCam 3930 is a decent quality compact size 5.25 megapixel digital camera with a 3x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom. As in all other digital cameras I've tried, the digital zoom produces a very blurry, grainy, mostly useless blob of a picture - fortunately, the 3x zoom proved sufficient for most of my work. For better long-reach photography, choose a digital SLR with an accessory zoom lens or a larger camera with a larger optical zoom. This camera suffers from rather short battery life... more info
Buy a spare... I purchased this camera and have had no problems with it. As far as the battery issue goes, if you're planning to take THAT many pics in one setting than I would suggest you spring for a $39 additional rechargeable battery to have on hand. Everyone knows that no matter what camera you have (especially digital) the batteries are gonna ge drained quicker than you can blink so just get a spare. Teh pics are great quality and I love the fact that you can record mini videos/movies to share via email.

Battery issues The product information is WRONG. The Vivicam 3935 takes 2 AA-size alkaline or NiMH batteries, but this model, the 3930, takes an odd Li-ion battery that Vivitar themselves do not sell! The only option for battery replacement is an expensive Duracell non-rechargeable model.
Battery issue? I don't have this camera but-
One reviewer complained that he couldn't find rechargable batteries for this camera. But the product information says it takes 2 AA NIMH batteries which are the most commonly available rechargable batteries there are. So one or the other is wrong.
