I have a PowerShot SD870 IS that I hadn't used in a long time. I charged the battery and the camera worked fine for a couple of minutes then the lens wouldn't retract and I got a "Lens Error". I charged the battery again, I tried starting the camera while holding down the shutter button, and I tried moving a piece of paper around the lens body (to try to clear any obstruction if there was one), but none of that helped. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I was wondering if the camera battery is like a car battery where you can charge it, but it still doesn't have enough power. I don't have another battery or the AC adapter.

Thanks for the info Tronhard! My last thing here is if anyone knows of any good aftermarket companies that make batteries for Canon cameras?

Hi! No, I didn't figure out the problem. Maybe one of these days I will try a new battery. I have a Sony camera which I have never had any problems with, so I am in no hurry to try another battery.
