My Kodak digital camera's shutter is stuck on open & it will not stay turned on. Camera does not indicate a low battery, just charged.

A stuck shutter is another common failure mode for digital cameras. The symptoms of a stuck or "sticky" shutter are very similar to CCD image sensor failure. The camera may take black pictures (for shutter stuck closed), or the pictures may be very bright and overexposed, sometimes with lines, especially when taken outdoors (for shutter stuck open). To confirm a stuck shutter, put the camera in any mode other than "Auto", and turn the flash OFF (you don't want to blind yourself for the next step). Next look down the lens and take a picture. You should see a tiny flicker in the center of the lens as the shutter opens and closes. If no movement is seen, then you likely have a stuck shutter. If so, please see this link for further info and a simple fix that may help.

Yes! you may need a new battery in that case, rechargeable batterie die over time. The sysmptoms you're saying definitely indicates loss of power and battery replacement should fix it. :)

Please try the following: 1. Make sure you will install a new or fully charged battery/batteries into your camera. Please use lithium batteries Ni-Mh or rechargeable Batteries (2000 M.Amp or higher). 2. Clean the battery contacts. a. Remove the battery/batteries and the memory card from your camera, then wipe the battery contacts with a soft, clean cloth. b. Reinstall the battery/batteries into your camera 3. Turn on your camera without the memory card. (If it works then it?s your memory card that is faulty)

are you using the battery that came from the box KODAK Li-Ion Rechargeable Digital Camera Battery KLIC-7001
first charged the battery for 4hrs and make sure when you charge it theres a light indicator in the camera., you may also try to turn On the camera while its charging in a AC adaptor., If its did the same thing call kodak toll free 1 800 235 6325. it means the camera gear lens is already defective thats why your camera will not stay On

Remove the batteries and clean the battery contacts inside the camera with a soft cloth (a heavy buildup on the contacts may require cleaning with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that the cleaning leaves in the camera, and then reinstall the batteries. This clears most power-on problems, but if yours persists, check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:
