Sorry that I didn't mention that my camera is K-x, which has not grip at all. My latest picture had next information:

Battery A/D Body No Load 2
Battery A/D Body Load 93
Battery A/D Grip No Load 2
Battery A/D Grip Load 46

It seems that PhotoMe gives little bit confusing information and might it be so that value 93 is no load value and 46 is with load. Value 2 can mean NiMH. PhotoMe version 0.79R17 (Build 856).

Hi

Does anyone know how to calculate battery voltage from EXIF battery datas (PhotoMe EXIF datas), eg.:

Battery A/D Body No Load 2
Battery A/D Body Load 124
Battery A/D Grip No Load 2
Battery A/D Grip Load 75

Or can it be calculated from the datas?

Now Eneloops run out and I had taken about 330 pictures with them. Maube I have been little bit lacy, because I put Eneloops to K-x 18th of December and it takes over four month to take that number of pictures. When Eneloops are in charger, I tryed Ansmann's Max E 2500 mAh batteries, but first they dosen't work at all, K-x was totally black. Then I put Amsmanns to my Metz flash and fired couple of times with full power, and put then back to camera and now battery indicator was green (bw. Ansmanns was new). Anyway I put recharged Eneloops back to K-x and they worked right a way, of cause.

Hi

So far I have used old Braun flash with K-x and I have setted sync speec, aperture and sensitivity myself.

Now I have new Metz Megablitz 50 AF-1 and I'm not sure which camera mode to use; Autopict, presetted Av or Tv, P or manual M-mode. Which one you recommend to get best results?

Now I have taken 100 shots with Eneloops and battery indicator is (half) orange. After 80 shots indicator goes orange, but after shutting down the K-x for a while the indicator was green again.

I haven't use internal flash and LV at all and now I reduce LCD's brigthness to minimum (-7). I also switch off the Shake Reduction function.

Yes, they are 2000 mAh, rating capacity of 2000 mAh (minimum 1900 mAh).

Now I've taken 70 shots with the Eneloop and indigator is green. That's not much, but better than nothing.

Now I have taken about 60 photos with Sanyo Eneloops and battery indicator is still green. Let seen what's the situation after new year.

Thanks folks

I desided to order a Finnish translation of Hedgecoe's "The New Manual of Photography".

I'm going to buy one photography book and I have two on my mind:
The New Manual of Photography by John Hedgecoe
The digital photography by Scott Kelby

I have loaned Hedgecoe's book but our library has not Kelby's one, so which one do you prefer better?
