Confused!

alright. so about a week ago my camera started acting funny. 100a. i had charged my batteries and was ready to go off filming. i turn my camera on and it sais low battery and shuts off. my 2 other batteries wont even do that. so i think, crap my camera is messed up. so i plug it into the adapter through the charger and it works fine. si now i think, mabey the charger just isnt charging my batteries. so i get my new charger in the mail today, put the batteries in, and they all show up as 75-100% full. so now im wondering what could cause my camera to not work with supposedly charged batteries but work fine with the adapter. is it a fuse problem? i dont know. if anyone has any ideas let me know. thanks
 
How old are the batteries? Maybe they're past thier life expectancy? I know this happens with cell phones where the battery can't hold a charge anymore. Don't know for sure about the one's for the DVX...
 
2 of the batteries im not sure on. they came with the camera. i got it used. the 3rd one i bought about 5 months ago, so that one should work. mabey my charger messed up the batteries. or mabey its the camera. i read about some fuses blowing but that can tbe it since the camera works with the adapter. im so lost
 
Is it possible my charger is messed up and ruined my batteries? but my new charger says they are full....... ahhh im going crazy. haha
 
It can not be the fuse, as it is trying to power up. In other words, there is some power available, but not enough. The fact that your charger reports full, does not mean much. What it actually tells you is the battery does not absorb charge. It can be for two reasons. Fully charged or dead. Probably it is dead. The only way to find out is to get a known good battery, and try one more time.
