Let me rephrase that slightly.... All cameras use batteries now (some exceptions do apply, but this is a Pentax list after all, and they all use batteries). All batteries need replacing at some point. They all have a replacement cost attached. If rechargables are usable, and can be recharged to a point where they have done more than 12 times (your number, not mine) the work of a non rechargable, then they are more economical to use. > > > replacing at some point." > > > Then you ~do~ agree with me. > > > alkalines, so are much more economical to > > use, providing the equipment can use it." > > But you're saying what I've said: not matter how long they last, they need > replacing. That is an expense, no matter how you phrase it. Actually, what I said was: "Any battery set needs replacing at some point. Rechargables last far longer than alkalines, so are much more economical to use, providing the equipment can use it. Very few film cameras can use rechargable batteries, and most now use those incredibly expensive lithiums." > > And? AND THE PEACE YOU SO DESPARATELY WANT ONLY HAPPENS IF YOU STOP LYING TO PEOPLE ON THIS LIST BY PARSING OUT OF CONTEXT, AND PLAYING YOUR OTHER VERBAL SHELL GAMES.
