Nikon Coolpix A10 video test 720p | Unboxing and Hands On| Field Test | Review The Nikon Coolpix A10 is its power source. Where the vast majority of compact cameras are fuelled by rechargeable Li-ion power packs, the A10 uses a pair of conventional AA cells. Nikon’s Coolpix L840 is the same in this respect, and it’s a good way for Nikon to keep costs down. It’s also useful when you’re away from the mains and run out of power, and if you refuel the A10 with lithium batteries, Nikon claims it’ll snap a very impressive 700 shots, although standard alkalines are rated for a more mundane 200 shots. For every day usage, it’d make sense to invest in some rechargeable NiMH batteries to avoid throwing money away on single-use cells. Nikon recons NiMH rechargeables will manage a healthy 500 shots per charge, however their added cost does make the A10’s low price slightly less attractive.
