Actually DDR2 uses less volatge than either DDR and SDR memory.
This is one reason why laptops quickly used DDR2 (even DDR2 400 when
DDR400 elraedy existed) because they are of less power consumption (at
a given speed of course).

Samsung is the big South Korean government owned industial giant. They
manufacture about anything that will put dollars into their economy. The

Battery grip for the D200, has a holder for AA batteries and the menu
has a setting for which batteres are in the camera to get correct
battery info.

Most of us do not use alkaline AA's, we use the Energizer Lithium AA's
which have a lot more capacity at lower weight. I have yet to use up a
set of Lithium AA's in my camera, I forget to turn it off, or it gets
turned on in the bag (my Oly has a lousey on/off switch), and wind up

"So you can't keep everyone happy."
That's definitely the truth. I obviously don't see the lack of AA support
as a killer.
Might have taken a 9V though... I would guess the they are not capable of
supplying the current required...
