Got a really weird one here:
-a basically brand new K5II body, less than 200 shots
-decided to "top-off" the battery before weekend
-once the battery was charged I've installed it in the camera and forgot about - that was last night
-this morning however, when I've tried to turn the camera on it was as dead as a brick
-removed the battery, inserted it again, boom! Camera powers up, but only shows 3/4 of the remaining charge.
-used the camera to take about 150 shots, came back home and threw the battery on the charger again
-about 45mins later, re-installed a fully-charged battery in the camera - It's a Brick again!!!! WTF???
-Checked the battery with a voltmeter - showing 8.34V - will let it rest....
What's next?
Anybody else had these issues? Really don't feel like sending the camera into service 2 weeks after getting it...
