It takes AA batteries -- that was one of the things he himself was interested in knowing.
He's cagey about the name and is probably not supposed to say anything about it. He takes great pains to not call it the K10D, for whatever that's worth. -Aaron -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Tainter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subj: Re: funny K10D story Date: Wed Jul 26, 2006 6:47 pm Size: 910 bytes To: [email protected] > Great.

What did you want to know? I can ask, though specific feature questions may be subject to change ----- Great, Aaron. My big question right now is whether it requires a proprietary rechargeable battery. Or is there a way to put throwaway batteries in it? There's a big fuss about this over at dpreview. A Swedish newspaper reported that it takes a proprietary battery like the Nikon D200. This made me unhappy because sometimes I shoot in places that don't have electricity -- like my work in the Sahel of Mali, or just a domestic camping trip. So it really is called the K10D? Thanks much.
