Hi Guys, The room was air conditioned so quite cool and I certainly wasn't shooting at rates that I have in the past using both of my K5 bodies with the same lenses and batteries. The lens was a Sigma but still this problem shouldn't occur and a little searching on the much maligned PF reveals that my case is not isolated. Both the shutter release system and the battery management system should have been ironed out by now. I did have some similar problems with my K5's in the early firmware releases.
