  • What's the camera model?
  • How many years have you had the camera?
  • How old is the battery?
  • What happens after you charge the battery up?

First guess?

  • downloading pictures doesn't use much power.
  • using the camera or video model drains the power more.
  • you might need a new lithium battery.  Small lithium rechargeables batteries have problems after a few years.  It's a big reason why I seek out cameras that takes AA's.  A little bulkier, but the AA's can be replaced for less than a Japadog.
