Well, got the camera last sat, put brand new Engergisers (they just happen to be in the house) in on sun morn, took a few pics (20ish) throu the week, went climbing on sat past and took about 75 pics, flick throu them on the camera sat night and on sun morn it was dead. I was expecting to get more out of a set of energsers but the camera was in the cold (0/-2 ish) most of sat.
I got rechargables with it so i'll be trying them shortly.

As for monochrome edinburgh shots watch this space, i've got a couple of friends who are quite serious photographers who are going to try me a bit. All 3 happen to be Nikon users.

Right oh, what is firmware?

Thanks

Hi everyone,


Was looking for a first DSLR for mountaineering and landscape photos and intially going to stick to Canon or maybe Nikon but found a virtually brand new K-m with twin lens and lowe pro bag on ebay for a bargain so i'm giving Pentax a go! Have heard a lot of good things about them as well.
K-m seems good but boy does it eat batteries!!! I'm guessing i'm missing a trick with that by just sing Engergisers??
