yeah, I had some similar experiences...
Sunday I had a long shooting session and some bad surprises from my K-5. With da* 50-135, FA77 and DA*16-50.
Monday morning the batteries still showed they have juice so I haven't charged them. Kept on checking my camera for what looked to me as back focusing.
After I wasn't getting anywhere, I took my camera with the FA77 and decided to shoot something outside. I took a short video (just 2 minutes long).
Then I pressed the LV button. Camera switched to LV mode, but the image was black. No mirror flick sound.
Turn off, then on. LV button. Same result.
I checked the battery indication... depleted. Pentax battery.
At this point I knew I should not try anything. Point is: Once the battery capacity to hold voltage under load is gone,
must not continue.
The battery will still show a normal voltage under no load, but immediately as load appears, the voltage drops instantly, current increases proportionally and it can and will actually fry those circuits that require load.
I hope I also solved my BF issues I had with all my lenses. See my post here

Try do the same and post your results, I think I see a pattern here.
