To solve this open the camera and remove the battery chamber (be careful with the cable that joins the chamber with the main board because it is very fragile). Once you have the battery chamber clean all the contacts with a contact cleaner. By all the contacts I mean, the 4 contacts for the batteries and the two contacts (male and female) that join the main board and de chamber. Be careful when you apply the contact cleaner to the main board contact bacause it is a liquid and might harm your lens if it reaches it. I have made this with my camera and worked awesome.

My camera wont power nor charge?

Have your battery replace with NiMH batteries (1.2 V) with 2500 mAh. I charged up some of these and my camera works fine.

My DSC-W7 was working fine the other day, it was just sitting on my counter one day and it wont come back on? any suggestions?

Check these:
  • Batteries are fully charged
  • Take the batteries out completely and reinsert them after a while
  • Try new batteries
If none of the above work, take the camera to a local electronist or Sony dealer for repairs.

DSC-W12: the batteries last only a few minutes before they're drained. Camera draining batteries very quickly.

If its a Lithium ion battery(similar to a mobile phone battery) then open battery compartment, clean battery contact points and try again after recharging the battery. If the camera uses AA batteries look for the current ratings on the side of the battery, generally digicams need batteries with more than 1200 mAh (I use a 2000 mAh for my Canon SX110 IS digicam). This current rating may vary for different manufacturers.

How long time I churge "SONY NP-BG1 Battery

The first charge you should let it go overnight, so it has a good solid charge. After that it depends on the mAH of the battery, the higher the number, like 1400, it should take about 3 hours. There should be a led light on the charger, its red when charging and turns green when completed. The chargers have a voltage regulator on them, so that you can't over charge a battery.

Battery Problem

If you have used this camera more than three months Try changing the battery. Before using fully charge the battery. Let the battery consumed in your camera fully then you charge again. Otherwise the battery life will reduce. Try this option before trying any other option.

Extremely short battery life

do you use alkeline batteries? if yes then they would end in 20-25 shots. Instead, use rechargable batteries of 2500 mah which will last long, very long. On my Cybershot H1, they give aproximate 350 shots with single recharge.

Go for Sony Original Batteries or Uniross brand also works fine.

2300 mah/ 2500 Mah any will work.. :-)

Power shuts when in camera mode

The user manual would not be of much help. Please try to clean the battery contacts inside the camera. Please use the new fully charged NI-MH accu batteries preferably 2500 maH capacity. If this measures do not provide a cure please contact the nearest Authorized Sony Service. If you need more info please advice.

Sony DSC-P93 battery replacement question

NiMH batteries. You can use the larger mAh AA. It has more capacity and should give you longer service before needing recharge. The battery manufacturers recommend that you do not mix the batteries. i.e. don't use mAh 2100 and mAh 2500 as one set, use all 2100 or all 2500 as one set.
