I went in for an LR44 the other day, and they gave me an A76. Package says it's an acceptable alternative. Anyhow, that's good to hear.
My recently purchased Spotmatic F doesn't seem to work with my kludged up but well-fit A76 battery. It should have, if all that's wrong is no battery, so I'm guessing there's something more fundamental wrong with it. Sighhh. If it needs that kind of attention, there goe$ a great purchase deal! But still, it's a beautiful camera & I'll keep it if it can be brought back... The previous owner did say that it had sat around in it's case, unused, for some 30+ years. Maybe it just needs a proper CLA? Thanks for the info on the K1000, David. keith whaley David Brooks wrote: > > LR44's, readily available at fine camera stores > in your area :) > > Dave > > ---- Begin Original Message ---- > > From: Keith Whaley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wed, 14 Aug 2002 04:02:17 -0700 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: New Toys > > Good onya, Butch! > The only phrase that comes to mind is, "got batteries?" > Or is that one of those later Pentaxes that take readily available > batteries? > > keith whaley > > Pentax User > Stouffville Ontario Canada > http://home.ca.inter.net/brooksdj/ - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
