Subject: Re: Stupid K-5 trick
It also happenedd to me a few times. Always with a non-genuine battery
near the end of its charge. Switching off and on did not unlock the
camera, while removing the battery did the trick. However, if you
insert the almost-depleted battery again, the camera will lock again.
Insert a charged battery and all is working again, possibly up to the
next end of charge.
Good to know. It was indeed a non-Pentax battery, (I'm sure it was
genuinely a battery). In theory it was fairly fully charged. But it may
have happened after I shot a bunch of frames all at once. It's
definitely something for me to keep an eye on. It's not nearly as
annoying as when my camera just crapped out and said that every battery
I had was dead for 20 minutes, during a paid shoot.
Speaking of batteries, since I'm no longer shooting the K-x every day,
I'm not charging the hybrids nearly as often, and I'm finding when I
pull them out of my bag that most of them are reading dead when I put
them in the K-x. This is after years of them working wonderfully, and
with at least two different brands.
