I'm setting up a construction camera for a 3-4 month run. In that timeframe, what battery should I choose? At what point does the discharge curve from a high mAh battery cross that of an Eneloop or Alkaline?

But here I'm looking for more of a comparison. I have a variety of Sanyo, Duracell and off brand batteries, and a Maha charger.
The Eneloops test out at 1900+ mAh, the off brands never match their rated capacity, but will test out above 2,500 mAh.
The camera itself is rated for 78 days of life on an "alkaline" battery, taking 3,700 pictures.
