True, but Pentax have to assume that customers might use AA Alkalines and claim that things won't work. They could specify "not to use Alkalines" but that will defeat the purpose. ----- So we lose the AA lithium option because of lowest-common-denominator idiocy. It's probably the same crowd as the group over at dpreview who believe that the Lens Fairy leaves lenses under the pillow at night.
