All,
My camera recently began indicating the Empty Battery warning icon. At first the camera indicated this warning message after only shooting a few images. When this first occured I thoght to myself...thats funny I know I charged my battery.
Later that afternoon I return home and charged the battery that was in the camera and replaced the battery with a know charged battery. Wouldnt you know..the same problem has occured.
Later after attempting to charge both batteries, I decided to confirm if my charger was operating correctly. I went to a local electronics supply store and tested my batteries with their charger and found that my batteries were holding charge.
I then decided to purchase a new battery anyway and found the new battery to have the same problem.
My assumptions is that the camera must have a batery voltage sensor that has failed. I live in Guam so sending the camera in for maintenance and inspection is possible but I forsee this taking over 3 weeks to occur, at minimum.
Has anyone experienced this same problem? Any suggestions or remedies?
Thank you for your help,
Mike
