I'm using Eneloops and they seem to last a little longer in the K200D than the K100D......not that I had any complaints about the K100D battery consumption. The K200D has been as good and probably slightly better in my experience. I haven't counted the actual number of shots I get before each battery change. Batteries last a week or more, even during weeks where I'm shooting and reviewing a lot shots. I've also turned off the instant review feature on both cameras and use hotshoe or remote flash when I do use flash..
