Pentax K-30 standard battery is 1050 mAh which yields nominal 400 shots.a standard rechargeable AA battery has up ca 2450 mAh,so with 4 AA Pentax k-30 should yield ca 3700 shots.Or I am overlooking anything?

Good math, but as mentioned by Jim in Hudson, one needs to take care of the difference in voltage of a factor of 2.5 yielding as well as the lower internal resistance of Lithium Ion batteries so you might expect up to about 1000 images using Sanyo Eneloop batteries not using Live View or video modes.
