Why does my digital camera turn off after taking only a few photos?

by AJ Matela

I received a Kodak Easyshare C875 digital camera for Christmas last year, has worked fine up till a few days ago. I place in fresh new batteries and the camera insists on shutting itself down only after 10 photos (tops). I used to be able to take hundreds of pictures without changing the batteries! I have tried rechargable & non-rechargable batteries as well as a variety of different brands. I only use my camera once a month, but when I use it, I take a ton of pictures.

I have no thought what caused this to happen! I tried resetting my camera; no luck. It is no longer under the warrantly because it is just a few days past a year! Please help me!!!!!

Mine does the same business. I have the same camera. My guess is the cameras are defected or they are naturally supposed to turn off.

Does your camera have a background for auto-power off after a specific time? I have a really different camera (List Digital Rebel XT) and it has a background for how long it stays on with no activity. The default background was pretty small, like 2 minutes, but I was able to set it for a longer period. If your camera has this, check in your manual to find out how to exchange it.

Sounds defective,but I recommend you check
your auto power off background as they may maybe have been reset after putting in new batteries.

Christmas is coming up, and I know that I need a new digital camera. my largest conundrum with digital cameras in the past is that they take to freaking long to snap a picture. Shutter lag is the most annoying business that I have ever experienced, and I have a 16 year-ancient sister. on top of having a quick shutter speed with very small lag, I am also looking for something close to 10-12 Mega Pixels, and it has to have an optical zoom. If you own a camera or know of a camera with all of these things, please let me know, because I am having an dreadful time result one.
Also, I am semi-willing to go up to $ 350.00 if I really need to.
thanks

List SD1200 IS
3X optical zoom, 10 megapixels, nearer than most point and shoots at “next shot delay”. Has image stabilizer. Very excellent image quality.

You can find a used DSLR for that sort of price if you look around. Try ebay and craigslist.
