Why does my ARGOS vivicam digital camera keep turning itself off?

It keeps turning off when im trying to use it. Battery symbol is howing in top right hand corner as 3/4 full. Yet a symbol thats big and square and kind of battery shaped keeps flashing on screen then beeps and switches off. Why does battery symbol show almost full then? Only been using it for a wk on AAA long life batterys. Help!!

its new i had one 2 weeks ago same thing happened argos didnt know why so changed it now same with this one. The batteries came with cam.I just wonder if anyone else got same one and this happened?

I have a Viacam camera from argos. Same thing was happening to me. These cameras use up batteries really quickly.
I bought a mains adaptor from e-bay to use insead of batteries a couple of months ago and camera has worked perfect since then.

is it new? it might need special camera batteries, if not send it back to warranty

maybe it is possesed by the great god argos (god of all shopping)

If you've been using the flash much, that's the culprit! The flash bulb on any camera takes a lot of battery power to charge. You might try to get rechargeable batteries and a charger...it'll save you tons of money in the long run.

Try hitting it. It probably still won't work but you'll feel better.

argos is crap

Batteries are low

digital cameras needs lots and lots of battery power, get super power batterys from a camera shop, they are better and recargable. having two sets is better too
