You could go with rechargeable batteries if you add a small solar panel to the camera. The problem with rechargeables is that their maximum voltage is slightly lower than normal alkaline AA, so if your device has a strict requirement of 2.7v nominal, then the rechargeables will show low power sooner because they run at 2.6v (for example, numbers are not exact). The solution to this is to change the batteries often.
Alkalines should work well in cold weather for quite some time. We use ours without changing the batteries for 2 weeks in freezing temperatures. Bushnell cameras claim to work for 1 full year on a single set of alkalines. I've even had cameras set up for 1.5mo in stormy weather with hundreds of videos taken and the batteries were still at 80%.
Lithium is more expensive but you'll get consistent voltage out of them. The problem is that once they run low on power they stop altogether. This isn't such a problem for cameras since they're digital, but for drills and motors instead of getting a period of slowing you'll notice that the drill stops altogether even after you just used it.
