michael_hintlian Posted November 17, 1998 Share Posted November 17, 1998 Looking at buying a Canon EF and I fear that it takes the now outlawed PX-625 (or other) mercury cell. Please clarify...thanks. <p> Also, is there a spec sheet for this camera on the web somewhere? <p> Appreciate all help and direction. <p> Cheers, <p> Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad_hutcheson Posted November 18, 1998 Share Posted November 18, 1998 Go to www.canon.com and look for a link to the Canon Camera Museum. It has pictures and general specs, inculding power source, for just about every camera they ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieter_lefeling1 Posted November 21, 1998 Share Posted November 21, 1998 Hi Michael, <p> yes, the EF uses two PX625 batteries, but due to its more advanced electronics the camera does not need mercury cells and their constant output voltage. You can use standard alkaline batteries (e.g. Varta V625U) without any problem. These batteries are worldwide available without any problem or legal restrictions. <p> HTH, Dieter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
