Camera Question

[WildChild]

Ok this is a mental health issue because it's driving me nuts! I have a Nikon Coolpix 3200, about 3 yrs old maybe? They cost about $300, so it's not a cheepie. It's gotten Sooooo sllloooowwww, to the point that to take a picture I have to take one, turn off the camera, turn it back on, wait, and then take another picture, turn off the camera, turn it back on....you can see why this would get old fast?

I would say the battery needs replacement. Even the batteries that come with a camera and can be plugged in and recharged have a life time and Id say yours has lived out its life. If you find your retailer online they should be able to send you a new battery at a fairly low cost
