May be me but I have D80 with VR18-200 lens - every now and then lately I am shooting some shots under auto setting the camera or lens wont action and shows nil battery on the screen and no focus settings - When I switch it off and back on it seems ok to start again - this happens intermittently - any suggestions ? - the battery is fully charged by the way
