I'll try the Alkalines, I have a pretty good supply of those for flashes
and such.

Try another set of batteries first, the internal resistance of he
lithiums may be out of spec so they die under load?

I was going to take a few night photos in a location where I didn't want to
risk the K-5II or even the K20D, so I put a set new of Litniam disposables
into the old *ist-Ds. Well the damned camera won't turn on. Tested the
batteries and all were with specification for the camera to turn on.
Cleaned the battery contacts, (using a rubber eraser), still no joy.
Dragged out the external power supply, plugged it in and into the camera, it
comes right on. Last time I used it it worked fine with disposable
lithiums. This is quite annoying. The only reason that I kept the camera
was for just this occasion, it's not economically repairable, and hell I
could buy a K-7 or another K20D for 200-300 dollars. End of Rant. You can
now return to your regularly scheduled conversations.
