    I played around with options yesterday. Most of the options weren't as good as I thought they'd be. But the more posts per page definitely is a favourite of mine

    The following options will be prompt to be erased

    Not sure if this is relevant - it's technical but not about the board.

    Recently my digital camera doesn't seem to recharge properly. I always recharge my camera after I use it, but recently even after it appears to be fully charged (with the battery symbol indicating that it is full) the power seems to be draining a lot quicker. When I first bought this camera, I could go around shooting heaps of photos without needing a recharge. Now it only lasts for not even a few hours before blinking that red "empty" battery icon and soon showing other signs of being depleted of power.

    I haven't owned another digital camera before this - and it's about 2-3 years old now... so what I'm curious to know is - does this mean that the rechargeable battery has run its due and I need to buy a replacement?

    Most likely is a battery age issue, Gok.

    Did you have an INITIAL charge for the battery that should usually be longer for the normal usual charging hours (it takes to become full)? Most probably and i assume you did then it must be a technical fault with your camera.

    Are you saying that this digital camera is 2-3yrs old? If yes, then well..its about time to change battery i assume.

    to fully utilise rechargeable batteries, it needs to be run down once in awhile (just like the batteries inside a laptop).. I do that fortnightly...

    with camera rechargeables (lithium-ion), I don't charge it until it has run flat. my konica kd-500z which I bought back in those days (7yrs??) is still running like new.

    standard rechargeable batteries (like AA size), usually can only be charge 1000-1500 times, and if you have been charging it everyday, then I would say those batteries is near the end of their life.
