Fuji FinePix S3400 digital camera - battery issue

I have used my S3400 twice and taken about 12 shots all up. I have had to replace the batteries after the first four shots - left camera for a couple days before using again. Changed the batteries - camera works okay. Go to use camera today - batteries dead again - only about 10 days since I changed batteries.

    Thanks but you're answer is not helpful. BTW, I am not Michael. I bought Lithium AA batteries and they were flat when I tried to use my camera yesterday. I only took 8 shots and left them in the camera for no more than 10 days.
    Can someone provide a answer rather than nonsense !

    Spoke to Service people who suggested I send it back. They also told me they don't recommend the use of AA Lithium batteries. I also used brand new re-chargeables with the same result - completely drained after 10 days without taking any shots or turning on the camera

Problems with my fuji S3400 camera

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo management program such as Picasa:

My finepix s3400 will not turn on. I've tried almost everything and I'm really annoyed. Is there something i can do to fix it?

Mine wont turn on either, the battery is fully charged and inserted properly. I can tell this as the pre-flash light comes on but nothing else, the only way to get the pre-flash light off again is to remove the battery.

Quick battery drain with Finepix S7000. Only about 25 shots!

See if there's a firmware download on the support section of the Fuji website.

Low battery

As you have noticed, the battey is not charging completely which indicates a faulty battery. Too bad you didn't get it replaced when under warranty as they would have replaced it for you for free. ANyways you can get a replacement from here for about $14

Fuji Finepix S2 Pro

Ensure the batteries are the correct kind and chemical makeup (yes it does make a difference!)
try using lithium or alkaline as oppose to standard =]

Otherwise there may be an issue with the camera itself, check for warranty? if it isnt under warranty, document the error message/number, consult the manual AND the support site for the manufacturer.

good luck! =]
