Good to hear that I'm not alon :)
Although, I am currently testing leaving the battery in with GPS turned off.
A couple of days ago I switched on the camera and again it didn't turn on (no response at all). I removed the battery and pluged it back in right away. The camera turned on and I went out taking a couple of shots without any problem. No idea what happend there.
I will keep an eye on it and let you know about my long time observations ;)

As far as I can tell they are both OEM batteries. One came with the camera and the other one looks exactly the same, with Pentax written on the label.

Thanks for the fast responses.
I have two batteries and there doesn't seem to be a big difference. I'm running firmware 1.10 and GPS logging is off (guess that's what was meant with tracking?).
Guess I will run a test switching the GPS completely off when I store the camera. I think I haven't really tried that consciously.
Any other option that should be considered?
Or any guess what might be wrong with the camera if it's not a software issue?

Hello everyone,
I have my K3 ii now for quite some time and it's working like a charm. However, there is one thing that's puzzling me:
Before I bought the K3 ii I already had a K5. In the K5 I could leave the battery inside when I didn't use the camera, pick it up a couple of weeks later and go out shooting. The K3 however seems to drain the battery also when turned off to the point I can't even switch on the camera anymore. Is that normal, e.g. is the GPS still active although the camera is switched off or something like that? Or is it just a faulty camera and I waited way to long to repair it because I'm way out of the guarantee by now?
Thanks for your responses in advance.

That's kind of an overstatement ;).
Don't get me wrong, I really like the K3 II but I'm still waiting for a firmware update which tries to fix the shutter lag, when using TTL flash. The working SD card switch would be also a nice addition, when I think about it :).

Unfortunately there is. At least with my Metz 58 AF-2.
I hope they will fix it somehow.
