Pentax should de-click all new lenses..... so video people don't have to

Stick with Eneloops and buy a good charger. Most others are very poor and vary, plus the capacities are often overstated.

Lidyl Tronic Energy 2300 looked good a few years ago, but the last one's I bought won't last longer than 1200 mAh so I won't buy them again.

My first digital was a Nikon 600 in 1999 and Panasonics were the only batteries that lasted any length. Great batteries (no longer made) and still going strong after 1000's of uses.

I seem to have not made that as clear as I intended. I meant to say photographers that use makes other than Pentax and are very busy butchering lenses to fit their junk cameras etc.

Just search Ebay for "de-clicked lens"

This makes my blood boil......

Notice he doesn't mention the de-clicking in the main body.

Probably a Canon user It's a good thing Pentax don't do video or all our SH lenses would have been de-clicked

Should be worth more if it was professionally de-clicked

I doubt though that there could be much practical point in such viewing on a camera LCD screen , even assuming good light conditions to see it clearly ....?

I'm impressed with how sharp these are ... especially at 3200ISO

You must have a good camera and lens
