Technology repair? Who would know anything about the Sony Cybershot digital camera?

ours keeps shutting down saying there is no battery power left.

There is a second non-removable "internal" battery that can run down if you leave your camera unused with low batteries (or no batteries) for a long time. The error message may be telling you about that internal battery .

Try leaving the camera on the charger for 24 hours. If the internal battery is the problem, it will finally charge up.

If your removable batteries are good, and trying to charge the internal battery does not help, you may need repair.

Good Luck

You need to recharge/replace your batteries then. Cybershot should have no faults when coming to power - they are known to last a long time on a single charge - my DSC P200 lasts me almost 4 hours of usage/charge, which is really good compared to my Canon EOS30D, which will go about 1.5 hours/charge/battery. Thats why I carry 3 batteries in my EOS + battery pack grip for maximum usage time. If it continues to do this, send it into sony for manufacturers warranty. Hope this helps :)

I have a Cyber-Shot with me and i too had the same problem!
It is because of the battery or the problem must have happened when the camera fell down!
Try taking to an authorised service centre or it may result in the loss of warranty if exists!

Im on my second cybershot, they are trash, I will never buy another...Take it to a Sony store, or your local electronics repair shop, if it gets sent back to sony, dont plan on taking any pictures untill Thanksgiving!

if your putting reg. batteries in in and using the view screen ...those batteries wont last long....you need nicade batteries..the ones you can recharge...i have to sets of batteries so i can keep ones on charge and the others in the camera...
