The camera has worked for years on rechargeables without exhibiting this behavior.

we have a Canon A630 that does the same. I cleaned the contacts and that seemed to help a bit. I thought about trying those NiZn rechargeable (1.6V) but that would be a nightmare, I would need a new charger, and to teach family not to mix them with NiMH. So I never got the NiZn.
