Editors' Comments
The tiny Pentax Optio S4i is perfect for photographers on the go — its body is so small that it can be stored in an Altoids tin or slipped almost unnoticed into a pocket! As an updated version of the popular Pentax Optio S4, the S4i features a larger LCD screen than its predecessor (1.8 vs. 1.6 inch) and a new charging cradle that makes recharging the camera easier than ever. Despite the S4i's small size, it features a 3x optical zoom and a movie mode with sound.

Pentax Optio S4i Comments & Questions (write your own!)
If this doesn't solve the problem, and a new set of batteries don't help, it may be time to have the camera serviced. Be advised, however, that if it's out of warranty, it may cost more to repair than it is really worth. The rule of thumb is that if the estimate for repair is north of 50% what you paid for it, you're better off taking that money and buying a newer and upgraded model.
