They don't work well at all in the northern hemi. From what > I've been reading, anyway. :-) i have been using eneloops, first on the *ist DS and then on the garmin vista hcx, for more than three years now and wouldn't think of using anything else. but, from what i read on the dpreview forum, looks like certain k-xs have problems with even freshly charged eneloops. i am looking to buy the k-x in january. hope the problems are sorted out through a firmware upgrade before then. regards, subash -- 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.
