Ive just bought a digital camera this week and I think something is not quite right with it.Its not a top brand name or anything its got 4million pixels was £230 reduced to £115 in the sales.Whats bugging me is that it came with 2 AA sized batterys(no problem there)But when I used the camera I only got about 20 medium res' shots from it before they went dead ,The user manual says about 100 shots per battery life.So in all haste I got some cheap batterys to try and only got 2 shots before they went dead .In desperation I raided some rechargeable 600 mah batterys with full charge and got about another 20 odd shots a couple using the flash, all taken within about a 5 min time frame,Before these went dead.On inspection these batterys were hot to the touch when taken out of the camera which leads me to think unusually high drain on the batterys.Does anyone else know for comparison how much life they get out of their batterys and if this sounds odd to you aswell.Any info will be much appreciated cus Im thinking of taking it back for an exchange tomorrow and dont want to look a complete t@t.
Cheers.
