Need new batteries approximately every 6 roll of films. Just got back from vacation in Bali and ended up not using it for the last one week. I could not get replacement batteries in Indonesia (running out of spares, had 4 with me). At first I thought it had to do with forgetting to turn off the meter when I bagged it. Well, even when I turned off the meter the battery drainage occurred. I am going to have it check up. On the other hand my R8 work just fine :-).
