How is the Pentax K-x battery life using lithium AA rechargeable batteries?
Question by Conner: How is the Pentax K-x battery life using lithium AA rechargeable batteries?
This is the one reason I’m not totally sold on the Pentax K-x. I’m aware there is a more recent version that has a lithium rechargeable battery pack, but sadly, I cannot afford that one. Should I still get this camera? How long does the battery life usually last? Thanks much!

Eneloops are pretty good and are suggested by K-x users. Just get another set to bring with you so you can swap out the batteries when one set loses it’s charge.
