The optional MB-D10 comes with two trays: one that allows you to
use eight AA batteries to power the camera (shown above), and
one that allows you to insert EN-EL3e batteries. Moreover, there’s
an optional adapter, the BL-3, that allows you to use EN-EL4

The MB-D10 can hold one EN-EL3e battery, eight AA
batteries (alkaline, NiMH, or lithium), or one EN-EL4 or EN-
EL4a battery.
