Battery indicator problem with E-300

[chii]

Hi guys,

anyone experience the battery going flat immediately after seeing the low-batt warning?

there seems to be a bug in the battery indicator as it drops from full charge to low battery.

Hello Chii,

Well, cases of loss of battery power after low power warning have surfaced at dpreview here. All are clamouring for a firmware update to rectify the situation.

That said, battery life is reported excellent, but have a spare in hand since the indicator is far from accurate for now.

Cheers,

Correct, the batt life is good , I can get approx 350~400plus shots w/wo flash.

As for the battery, I suppose it would be good to wait for the power adaptor for the E-300.

Hopefully the extra power would improve the AF of the camera like the E-1.

cheers
