Well, the camera is 4 years old. If these are rechargable batteries, are you certain the batteries are holding their charge? LiOn batteries do die after a few years. And extreme temperature conditions can cause the battery to fail. Sony has the repair contract for Minolta/Konica cameras, you may need to send it to them for an estimate. Or simply try and replace the battery.
