Do you have multiple cameras? Or just one?

If multiple cameras, do they all behave this way?

@LadyEden: Another option is to purchase a replacment charger

Although the first one is more expensive, it will charge a fully dead battery.

There are cheaper third-party stand-alone chargers that say they are compatible, but I've never used one.
