Internal flash for Minolta MaxxumST/SI
Dear John L.You asked me to check if my CR2 batteries were alkaline or Lithium. I found that my batteries are Lithium. These batteries should be faster than alkaline batteries. I do not believe thatI can use chargeable batteries. Sincerely, Howard Paley.

Howard,
The solution is what Ken first suggested, and what I also believed it would be . . . a more powerful shoe mounted flash that runs on its own batteries (that can be rechargeables), not the camera's, and doesn't need to dump full power all the time.IMHO, the built-in "flip up" flashes camera makers are puting on their SLR's are more a marketing tool than anything else. They're pitifully low power and they consume camera batteries much faster if it's used frequently. They weren't designed for "fast" recovery. -- John
