how to rectify the "change the batteries" problem in digital cameras canon A630?

I have canon digital cameras A630.whenever it opens, even with a new battery, it shows "change the batteries". But if I see the pictures it shows them clearly. How to rectify the problem?

1. Extending the lens takes a lot of power...it could be that that is drawing so much power that it trips the low power warning. There might be a build up of dust or dirt in the mechanism requiring more power to operate than it was designed for. That would explain why viewing is no problem...the lens is not being used. A service would cure it.

If you are using rechargeables, they could be at the end of their lives...power capacity drops and the won't hold a good charge. If you are not using rechargeables, you should be...they last longer than alkalines and once you've bought them cost just a few cents to recharge.

If they're alkalines and you always get them from the same source, buy from somewhere else or a different brand....there are a lot of fakes around. Really cheap batteries in top-brand colours.
