I have been using the Fuji F31 FD for the past 3 weeks...its still quite a new gadget for me but one thing that still remains a mystery is the fact that it claims it has a battery life of 580 shots.

Throughout these 3 weeks, i've been testing the camera and snapping lotsa pictures but i don't think that it has reached the 500 shot mark let alone 580 shots before it needs a recharge... The most i got out of it is approximately 200 plus shots before the battery life runs out.....

So, im wondering if this is normal or unusual ?....People who owns the F31, please comment...
