Don't have a F280, but should be fine.

In a way, they are something of a cross between the characteristics of
alkalines and NiCds.

Capacity is in between NiCds and alkalines

Life is in between.

Max Amperage is in between. (I wouldn't use them in a QA310 because NiMh
batteries might be damage the flash as NiCd ones do.

They are more fragile than NiCds and a smart charger is really necessary
for them.
