Originally posted by MSM Wow, that is much better than my eneloops. I will say that I have not felt battery life has been an issue with me, though. Do you use any LV or Video?
I use LV, video and flash sparingly. I use flash mainly for fill.
I started out using Eneloops, and got about 1,200 actuations per charge. That is actually quite good, but the first two sets of lithiums have given 3,000+ per change, and the current set is over 2,000 and going strong. As much as I like the environmental friendliness of the rechargeable Eneloops, the long life and peppy AF from the lithiums is winning out.
As you can discern, I've put a lot of actuations on my K-x since purchasing it this year. The size, the batteries and the low light performance have made it my favorite camera since the MX.
Not to drift the thread too far, but the Eveready Ultimate Lithiums are a terrific product. Putting six of them in my 645 put new pep in that old body as well.
