I made a (losing) bid for the 300, not far off the price paid. If it had been on here initially at closer to the final price I would have bought it, saving fee's, etc. Ditto with the film cameras.
Guess I should have taken up the offer in John's second post and made an offer, even though it would have been around £150 shy of the asking price.
Live and learn

I understand there's no battery pack for the K-x, but you should get 400-500 shots out of a set of typical NiMh rechargeables batteries (1900-2500 mAh), or over 1000 with non-rechargeable Lithium.
There is/was a firmware update that was supposed to improve matters (not sure whether it was battery life or battery life indicator), plus a lot of users swear by Sanyo Eneloop rechargeables in their K-x's.

Have a cup of tea (or coffee).
Cross fingers.
Replace battery and switch on.
Come back and tell us all's well
