Hi - I have a Canon Digital Rebel XT/350d. I have had it 4 years, and have the original two Canon batteries (bought about the same time).Now, even though the batteries are charged, I only get about five shots each before they're drained. I recharged them again - same problem. Time for new rechargeable batteries? Or is it a problem with the camera?
Most likely your batteries are just not holding a charge. However, before you spend good money on new batteries, try charging them on another charger (friend or sympathetic photo shop?). Could be the charger also. Usually it's the batteries, though.

Thanks, Steve!
I have a similar problem, but I just bought brand-new batteries (2 of them just in case). I fully charge them, take a few pics, and when I turn the camera on again later (next day or so), the battery is completely dead. No clue.
You were rught! New batteries and everything was back to normal!
