That's the behavior I was expecting - "Full, Full, Full ... Half", so ok, now I need to charge the battery before it goes dead. Instead I got Full, Full, Full, Dead with no warning. Why have a display that will show half charge and not use it? Back home after two weeks on the road, and catching up on the list. I get the digests, and think I'm only a couple hundred behind. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
