Dinbeau,

 

What firmware is on the affected camera? The issue you are experiencing could be due to older firmware. A battery optimization fix was released in a recent camera firmware update, be sure your camera has fresh batteries and good signal strength and allow the camera to complete the firmware update overnight.
