Always swap batteries when odd things happen.
How old is this camera?

Hello,
My camera occasionally has an issue where the shutter does not seem to open.
What I mean, is that the LCD display is dark and the flash goes off on all pictures even outside!
The reviewed pictures are just plain black.
I found that if I turn it on and then off a few times and wait a few minutes, it begins to work properly.
Could the batteries cause this?
I figured it couldn't be the batteries as the flash works fine and is ready quite rapidly after each shot.
Thanks for any help
Mike W.
