I am interested in buying a Canon Powershot A540 or A700 particularly because they take AA batteries. The official specifications note the they can use standard alkaline and NiMH batteries but I am particularly interested in using disposable lithium batteries (not rechargable ones).
Will these models work with AA disposable lithiums without damaging the units?

    yes u can , but they are very costly, i reccomend you buy some high capacity rechargeable batteries, go on ebay and type in 2700mah, you will see a vast quantity of different brands, they are all ultra high quality and it doesn’t matter on the brand, i also reccomend u type in to ebay sprint 15, that is a 15min charger and is cheap on ebay but expensive everywhere else, that should give you a good power supply

    It should. I have a Canon Powershot A540 but I use rechargable batteries. Using the disposable batteries don’t give you much life for the camera. I recommend you use rechargable alkaline.
    P.S. I bought my camera in April and it came with AA batteries. They weren’t rechargeable but they worked for 4 days.
    Hope this helps :)

    yes- if the camera takes AA then you can use any AA batteries

    AA disposable batteries should work, but life is important. With current technology, NiMH rechargeable batteries give best life only next to Li-ion rechargeable batteries. Using disposable batteries with digital camera would be repentable, if camera stops and important picture is missed!

    Yes they work with any AA size battery. Only life span of battery matters that is why they recommend to use rechargeable ones.
