Re: BP-21 vs BP-22... what?!?

I do remeber this change in law at the time. One of the reasons was historically there was a new battery for nearly all new cameras produced. The idea is to stop the producers making too many battery types and more batteries that are interchangable into newer models of cameras. It was about waiste and the enviroment as much as anything, in the hope batteries would not become redundant , therfore being used again in newer cameras purchased. Obviously this does n ot apply to cameras alone. I belive it is going to be a world wide move.
