Fuji A205 DigiCam False Battery Low Indicator

I got this camera brand new just a few days back. I've plunked in the
Panaonic alkaline batteries which came with the camera and within half
day or about the camera low battery light comes on. The camera at this
stage will auto shutdown believing the batteries are low. I was only
testing out the camera and maybe only took max 15-20 frames leaving
the LCD screen on. I did leave the batteries in the camera. The same
thing happened to another new set of EverReady alkaline batteries.
However I tried the same set of alkaline's on my walkman and the
walkman plays as if the batteries are new. I also tested the both sets
of alkaline "AA" using a multi-meter and they all tested good none of
them failed.

Can anyone suggest what I should do ? Has anyone seen a similar
problem ? Thanks for reading this post.
