  12. Hi,
  13. has anyone used 6V lithium batteries for the Pentax 67?
  14. I bought one because I thought that it would be preferable
  15. to the silver batteries. But the manual does only recommend
  16. alkalines or silver oxides, so I returned it and got a silver-
  17. oxide. The reason is that I've read in Pop Photo that older
  18. cameras might not work with the new lithium batteries. Why could
  19. this be the case? Would the electronically timed shutter
  20. work differently?
  21.
