D800 battery life

We recently shot about 500 photos and still had about 50% battery power left. Quite impressive we would say.

And the D7000 which I just bought. I have 5 batteries in total between the two cams. Lot of frames there.

I shot a wedding with my D800 and changed out the battery (even though there was still some charge left) roughly 1000 frames into the gig. I can't see me ever using all three of my batts. Not bad at all!

Depends largely on the use of autofocus, vibration reduction and live view. When I forget the plug in the AC power in the studio I sometimes do not get more than 10 product images from a fully charged battery, because the live view is on all the time :D
