Oh, they work just fine (and I love the capacity; with a full set of eight batteries, and the switch from Microdrive to CF cards, I've never yet had to change batteries in the field). But I do have to be a little more disciplined with them; with the Ray-O-Vacs I could just grab the camera even if it had been sitting around, unused, for a month or more. That's riskier with the 2500s. The *ist-D is a little finicky about the charge levels, especially when using the battery grip - I've found it's best to start off with fully charged cells in both units (or to take one set of cells completely out). -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
