The MB-D10 takes one EN-EL3e, EN-EL4a, or EN-EL4 rechargeable Li-ion
battery or eight AA alkaline, Ni-MH, lithium, or nickel manganese batteries
(an EN-EL3e is supplied with the camera; EN-EL4a, EN-EL4, and AA
batteries are available separately). Higher frame rates are available with
EN-EL4a, EN-EL4, and AA batteries (pg. 77); note, however, that in the case
of AA batteries the frame rate will decrease as battery level drops.
The shooting information display shows the type
of battery inserted in the MB-D10 as follows:
_ EN-EL3e rechargeable Li-ion battery
_ EN-EL4a or EN-EL4 rechargeable Li-ion battery
_ AA batteries
