I would point out that my old canon A40 stated Lithium batteries should
not be used. They never said why and your guess is as good as mine.
I don't see a similar caution with my A95 and haven't looked at other
canon (or any one else's models.)

Lithium peak at a higher voltage than Alkalines, and the circuitry may not be
designed to handle this. They can run to 1.8V (open circuit voltage).
Putting a significan load on an alkaline will drop it down to 1.2V (or lower)
where a Lithium battery might only drop to 1.5V. That voltage under load may
be to high for your camera's circuit design.
