Tells me to change the batteries even when I have just put in brand new alkaline batteries or fully charged rechargeable batteries (I have tried this many times, different days, etc.) Once and a while I can get it to work for one or two photos but the low battery light will be blinking right away and then it will turn off after one or two shots. It seems to work fine to view the photos but the batteries aren't picking up properly when in photo taking mode. I have seen this issue posted else where by others with this camera, but still no answers on how to fix it.
