Hmmm, I will have to check what is in my LXs. One of them
had the battery go out without warning in September. I was verifying the
meter selection for available light shooting in a church one evening. There
were no flickering LEDs. The following afternoon the first shot I took
locked up the mirror in Auto. I turned it to B. And replaced the
batteries. I believe they were alkalines, but I cannot be certain at this
point.
I have only had it occur like this once
before a couple of years ago. I believe I usuall carry the Duracell
batteries, whichever ones they are.
