I'll have to do a little more digging - perhaps I'm getting confused with the battery grip ??

The batteries are identical between the K10D and GX10.

The NP-400 is a minolta battery which is identical to the Pentax. I have 2 of them and they last just as long as the original Pentax at a fraction of the price

Yes, it has rather more style than the ubiquitous "gobsmacked".

I just cannot see George being "gobsmacked" but I can see him being "flabbergasted"
