"With digital camera use skyrocketing, high-performing, rechargeable power options are in high demand," said Dan McCarthy, director of global marketing for Duracell Specialty Products. "Our latest introductions underscore our dedication to the rechargeable category and reinforce our commitment to providing dependable power for every type of digital camera user, whether an avid snap-shooter or an occasional user." Duracell's rechargeable products offer strong value for frequent digital camera users, such as those who use their cameras at least once a week. According to research conducted by Duracell, this group represents just over one-quarter of digital camera users.

A recent survey, conducted by Opinion Research Corporation on behalf of Duracell, found that one-third of digital camera owners need help determining which battery to choose for their digital cameras. Duracell's new digital imaging guide will appear on product packaging and at select retail outlets.
