CRV3 for C5050?

[WOODMAN]

Apparently I have had my head in the sand for awhile, as I am just becoming aware of the CVR3 rechargeable batteries. And here I thought that NiMh was the do all and end all of batteries. Well, jeez Ma- what will they think of next? So, naturally, I am interested to find out if they will work with my trusty C5050, and if so, where do you guys recommend looking for them? I suppose they need a new dedicated charger, also. Oh well, its only money. Thanks for your help. Woody

I googled a couple of battery sources that list the CRV-3, as well as the Li10B. I'd check them for fit at the local camera or electronics store. Most of the 5050 owners I know just use 4 rechargeable high capacity aa's.
