It lasted a month ad I need to get more so if it isn't rechargeable, where do I get them? And if rechargeable, where do I get a charger?

No, but you can use any AA-size battery.

I'd recommend the highest-capacity rechargeables you can find, along with a charger, which you can get in supermarkets or electrical dealers.

If you MUST use disposables, buy Lithium - they're expensive, but pay for themselves compared to the replacement cost of Alkalines.

Alkaline AA's are not rechargeable at least for camera use.

AA batteries with "Rechargeable" on the label are rechargeable. The best available are "Eneloop" in this category.

You can also buy "lithium's", not rechargeable but last a very long time and are expensive the last set I bought was $10.00 or more I believe. This set lasted me almost 9 months in my Pentax Kx DSLR camera.

Your Fujitsu Rspec Alkline AA batteries do not sound rechargeable or they would say so on the label.

While there's such a thing as an Alkaline rechargeable battery, it is not a consumer-grade item. The Alkaline batteries you have are non-rechargeable.

While there's nothing wrong with buying replacement batteries - and a good brand such as Duracell Coppertop, many folks opt for rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. You can usually buy a set of 4 with charger for under $20.

Do NOT use low grade off-brand Alkaline batteries from the dollar store, or non-alkaline batteries - often marked "Heavy Duty", even if they are brand name. These are typically carbon-zinc, and only made for flashlights, and usually not made well, and are prone to leaking electrolyte, which can damage your camera.
