Welcome from a new member/K-50 owner. You've come to the right place. In the short time I've been here I've found this forum to be filled with friendly people who are eager to answer questions. Loads of info can be found here.
One of the first things I did was to order an optional AA battery holder (very inexpensive) and lithium batteries. Big difference.
Good suggestion from pathdoc.
