I shot 124 photos over 5 days before battery died on a vacation trip last year. I haven't checked if it can use regular batteries. It uses the xD card for expansion.
These cameras are point and shoot. It takes about 1-2 seconds to be able to shoot photo. Also camera size is nice, I carried it around in a vest pocket.
3x optical zoom.

I know a few people that have Olympus cameras. They all tell me they are great and no comkplaints. I am looking at the Stylus 410 which runs about $320.
