What sort of camera is it?
And does it take batteries or is it rechargable?

Have you tried changing the batteries? I find that usually fixes any problems I have with my cameras x

Hm, have you tried hooking your camera up to the TV with the included A/V cable. I read here that it can help : http://blogs.yucs.org/~dwallach/2004/…

Sorry I can’t be of much help, good luck with it x
