Canon PowerShot A2000 IS: Why do my batteries only last a few seconds?

Mon, 04 Nov 2013 13:39:21 -0700

This camera has worked fine for a few years, but recently the batteries have been dying very quickly - the low battery sign flashes, then the screen goes blank and when I turn the camera on again, either the screen says "change batteries" or turns off in about a second. When I get lucky, the camera will stay on just long enough for me to snap a picture. After changing the batteries, they usually don't last more than a minute. I've tried the toothpick trick with folded pieces of plastic straws but it doesn't help.

I may have dropped the camera or dropped something on it, because there is a small crack on the top corner, next to the shoot button. Could that have caused this problem? Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Canon PowerShot A2000 IS: The camera shuts down as soon as power it up

Sun, 22 May 2022 07:22:51 -0700

I press the on/off button and the lens protrudes, the shutter opens for business, the preview panel lights up, the indicator light blinks green, then the camera immediately shuts down and the lens retreats. I have changed batteries and switched out SD card, that doesn't help.

Canon PowerShot A2000 IS: My battery door and compartment underneath is broken

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 22:12:44 -0700

I do not know how to replace it. is there a guide anywhere online? the plastic bits have broken off preventing it from closing fully. this causes a low battery warning. As of now, I have attached enough rubber bands to it to keep it shut and it is working fine.

Canon PowerShot A2000 IS: Powershot Won’t power on (Unless…)

Mon, 17 Feb 2025 11:18:13 -0700

I bought a powershot at an estate sale, and after throwing batteries and sd card in it, I got nothing. Cracked it open, saw a lot of corrosion on the battery terminals so I cleaned them off and now it only will power on with the play/display button. Could it be that the corrosion reach the power button? And is that something I could likely fix? Thanks!
