I've been using rechargable batteries on my F100 for quite some time now and don't have any problem with those. However, lately when I try to use regular AA batteries it just won't work. Brand new batteries run dead after only a couple of shots. I tested AAs on F100 when I first got it 8 months ago and didn't have have problems then. Does anyone know what could be the problem here? Can I fix it myself or do I have to send it back to Minolta? I live in the US and it's hard to find a Minolta repair center around here.

Thanks a bunch!
