Tom & Bucky,
Interesting. I have never had problems with the double battery in the Super Program
or the ME. On the other hand, I noticed the LX display seemed to pulse when I let go
of the shutter release today. I opened the battery compartment and found a double in
it. I put in 2 unused MS76's from '95 and the pulsing went away. This has happened
before.
Regards, Bob S.

problems (I can't remember if it was in the MX or
ME super). In any case that's what I've purchased
this time.
It seems to me that a single battery possibly could
have an advantage in that there is no possibility
of corrosion or resistance between the two
individual cells. Of course I am probably over
analyzing things with this statement.
