What kind of batteries do I need? can I use duracel Ni-MH rechargables?

How you know batteries are good? Sometimes new batteries are bad too. Also there is a possibility that you are using wrong type of battery like normal carbon batteries or lower ampere batteries which work fine in other gadgets but will show empty in a digital camera. Digital camera need high ampere batteries like Duracell (if your camera use AA batteries) or rechargeable NI-MH/ Li-ion batteries.

They specify 2 x AAA size Ni-MH rechargeable battery, 1.2 V

It should run with standard batteries but don't place it in the charger with them installed.

hi i just to have silimar problem with old panasonic, kodak and polaroid cameras.

try to use Duracel alkalines, not the cheap ones with out alkaline those are for remotes and clocks. flashlights.

if you are using rechargables make sure they are 2700mha AA NiMH or higher. lower won't work(there is another kind of rechargeables batteries those don't work on it).

for the lithium i never used them. they were kind of expensive compare to alkalines.
If i help. please rate me :)

hi

wat batteries are u using?

I have the same model, have been using rechargeable batteries as well as duracell. works good

dun buy those cheap batteries, $1.00 types, they are not enough to sustain the power requirement

Hi! Most digital cameras require outrageous amounts of power to work properly. Be sure to use only high quality, hi power ni-mh rechargeable batteries. Check for Sanyo Eneloop or Duracell. Sometimes we think the camera is broken, but in most cases is only insufficient amout of power. If you can't find the before mentioned batteries, look for 2500mA NI-MH type rechargeable batteries and a proper charger. Good luck!

Use alkaline batteries like duracell. Digital cameras support only extra duty batteries.

Hey this is RaulFixall. You can fix this problem by naking the batteries, I'm mean by taking apart the plastic that cover them. You'll see that the led charging will turn on.

Olympus Ni-MH batteries will last approximately 60 to 80 images and can be recharged about 500 times. The Olympus CR-V3 long-life lithium batteries provide power up to 2 times that of Ni-MH batteries. The CR-V3 long-life lithium batteries are NOT rechargeable.
