Originally posted by denisguerra7 I'm going to buy a camera and I saw the Pentax K-50 and it's great, then saw the Pentax K-S2 and everything was perfect till I saw the battery life of 440 shots. The K-50 lasts the same but has the optional AA battery compartment. So I was wondering if there exists any long life Pentax battery and if is good to use third party batteries.
The K-S2 doesn't support an AA adapter or battery grip, nor are there any high-capacity batteries available. Some third-party batteries may quote a higher capacity but at the end of the day you're lucky if you get the same performance as with the OEM battery.
If you want longer battery life, I would either go with the K-3, or get a couple of spare batteries for your K-S2
