I have a Pz-1p and can easily get 50 rolls to a battery. I seldom use autofocus or the built in flash, so that probably extends things. Battery brand can have a really big impact.  I've found Vartas and Sanyos to last very long, Duracells to be about the worst.

That 50 rolls figure is a mixture of 36 and 24 exposure rolls, so you mileage will vary - but 7 to 8 souds very low to me, unless you are using AF, powerzoom, and flash a lot.  But if the batteries were old or improperly stored before you bought them....

i bought a used PZ-1 and now realize that the 2CR5 battery lasted only
about 7-8 rolls. isnt that too less? i didn't use the flash on more
than 15-20% of the shots. am i doing something wrong? or was the
battery little drained when i bought it?
