I, myself, hate the battery pack. I would be fine if I could use the battery pack and AA's, but we can't. If I'm going on a long backpacking trip, even if I turn of the LCD, I risk running out of battery and not being able to charge it. I would prefer AA's over a battery pack any day.

Noooooo... cameras tend to eat batteries - I'd take the battery pack any day! (If I need more power, I'd just get another pack)
