This is normally just the battery needing replacement. After about a year of regular use the battery will have a very short useful life. So you may only get a few pictures from a full charge before it is flat again. That is typical for most lithium type batterys. They only have so many recharges in them before they need replacing.
It is also possible that the re charger unit has a problem or the circuitry in the camera has a problem but 99 out of 100 times it is just the battery.
You have a few options for finding a replacement. Get one from Kodak which might cost the most, get one from a local camera shop, or order one online. You will find ordering online will get you the best price but the battery won't be a kodak brand. These will fit and work but may not have the same capacity as the original. The good part is that you can buy 2-4 batteries for the same price as the kodak one. It's worth having a spare battery if you do a lot of pictures from time to time ie a wedding etc where you do a lot and don't have time to recharge.
