Hello, I've always used chargeable batteries, but lately, immediately after they've been charged, the 'change batteries' message pops up on my A85 Power Shot camera. I tried using fresh Duracell batteries, and the message popped up after only a few days (camera use no higher than usual). Can you tell me how long, generally, I should get out of my camera with fresh batteries (maybe my chargeable batteries are done?), or if this is indeed a 'trouble-shooting' problem that you can help solve. Thanks! Lianne

This was helpful, as the problem did indeed turn out to be battery-related. For whatever reason, however, I have noticed that the second set of fresh Duracell batteries I've been using have been lasting as long as they always have in the past (when I've had to use them vs. rechargeable), which is plenty more than a dozen shots (as per the Guru's comments above). They will die soon, though, and at such time, I'll certainly be purchasing new rechargeables that are 2500 mah or better. Thanks!
