Much to learn. Is it o.k. to buy a battery pouch to keep the battery stored while we are not using the camera?

Flip through your manual now and then they are laid out pretty well.</P><P>Sure you can store the batteries that way that's fine I just have mine in the camera bag.</P> Mon, 02 Nov 2015 00:04:42 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/Canon-camera-SX610HS/m-p/155527#M8546 John_ 2015-11-02T00:04:42Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/Canon-camera-SX610HS/m-p/155529#M8547 Thanks once again.
