Nikon D800 power issues (or battery issues)
I purchased a Nikon D800 with a shutter count of around 4000 2 years ago, and it's at around 35k now. Everything has been going great with the camera until recently. The other day, after i had the battery on charge for 36 hours at one time (i forgot abt it), i popped it into my camera, took maybe 2 or 3 pictures, then set it down until the next day when i found the camera completely lifeless, not even a dead battery icon. I popped the battery back into the charger, used it a little more, and today i topped it off before taking it to a football game, where the camera went lifeless again after about 2 hours, just suddenly. no error, no dead battery icon, just bricked. but, after plugging the battery in again for maybe 5 minutes, it powered on and read a charge of 95%, which is suspiciously high.
Does anybody have any theories as to what's going on here? Anything is greatly appreciated!!
