Hi, Ive had Pentax from the 35mm film days to my K-m all my old film lenses fit and work fine (ok so no autofocus and manual exposure only) but that adds to the experience, there's something about pentax - they just feel right

Powergenic Zinc batteries seems to be a reliable solution since they have a higher voltage.
You can look on the Pentaxforums for some feedback on those batteries with Pentax cameras.

I just want to take non-blurry non-noisy photos of my 3 year old boy in my living room (in the early evening as that's when I usually see him) without resorting to flash My living room is usually lit by 4 compact fluorescent 'energy saver' bulbs, equating to around 200W incandescent.
With my K20D I can't do that without going up to 1600, and even then I'm only getting speeds of 1/15 or so (at f2.8 ), which still results in lots of blurry photos. 3200 on my k20D is unusable in colour, and barely usable in BW.
I simply use a flash and bounce that of from the ceiling, works wonderfully if you ask me.
The only time I needed ISO over the 800 was at a night race in Zandvoort but I still was able to pull off some nice photos with the K10D

I'm very curious about this because I believe that this might have something to do with the focus speed.
For example the DA40 has a very small MF throw and the AF focus is very fast, the throw on the DA*50-135 is 3 times as long and takes a bit longer to focus.
Since every one says other brands focus faster I wonder if that has something to do with it.

Eneloops which my uncle has also work great, if you don't drain your batteries in 3 weeks these would be my choice or else I would go for the Varta.

Stephan let's be honest, culinary prowess is not exactly what Netherlands is known for .
But definitely great country and great people , and you are a fine example of that

He use eneloops without a problem but like some said, sometimes when starting up the camera thinks it's out of juice and wont go fully on, simply turning it on - off solves the problem but with the batteries selected on Nihm, it didn't gave that problem anymore the sort time I used the camera.
