Help Captivate "Camera Failed"

Hi everyone! I was hoping someone has experienced the following issue with their Samsung Captivate and has some input as to why this is happening:

Three times, I have tried to open the stock camera app, and the screen stays black and then the message "Camera Failed" pops up along with an OK button that closes the app.

All times I have plugged the phone into the charger and momentarily the camera works. Last time this happened, the battery was at 64%. I plugged in the phone, and when the battery was at 66% the camera worked.

However, now my battery is at 20% and the camera IS working. I can't figure out what is making the camera fail and why plugging it in makes it work again. Any ideas?
