I have a Kodak dx4530. Recently, when I push the shutter button to take a picture, the square inside the viewer turns from blue to red and slightly shrinks...nothing happens but when I push the button again, it takes the picture and immediately shuts off. I've replaced the battery and memory card and still have the same problem. Any idea on how to fix this?
The camera is not recommending the picture, It could be overexposed, shaky or taken in the wrong SCN.
Make sure that you are installing a fresh/ full charge battery
Remove the battery
Clean the metal contacts on the battery using a clean cloth
Pls. use lithium batteries Ni-Mh or rechargeable Batteries (2000 M.Amp or higher).

Then unfortunantly you need to organise a repair

The battery is brand new and fully charged. It doesn't matter if I hold the camera or try to use the self timer by placing it on a flat surface, it still shuts off. In fact, you actually have to push the button twice for it to take the picture...the first time the square in the viewer turns red and nothing happens..once you press it the second time, it will actually take the picture but shuts off.
