Have you noticed that? No batteries required, better performance in low light, more pixels than your high end digitals and more.
I think you need to go back to film.

I am to return to the Amazon and would like to record my trip with still and movie images. Most of the places I shall visit will have no electricity to recharge camera or image storage devices. I can take along disposable batteries or even solar rechargers. Anyone with any advice or experience in this area?
If I can find a decent camera that uses disposable batteries and a similar storage device for the images, I am sure that would be a solution.
