Battery problems

(Dan Cook - 9/7/09)

I have had my a570 for almost 3 years now. I love the pictures I get from it. However I'm just about to throw it in the trash. I have used just about evey type recharable battery I can find and the camera seems to eat them up after the first use. They rarely ever hold a proper charge after the first time. Nothing more frustrating then to fully charge your batteries before a trip and to have every single one of them fail when you go to use them. I see in this forum that all types have been tried and all recieve a fail at one point or another. It's obvious to me that the a570 is ruining recharable batteries. Thats the only reason I can figure out why every brand of batteries recieved a fail after the first use. Everyone here for the mostpart say whatever batteries are great...but I haven't heard what happens after they try to recharge them. Whatcha think?
