Bummer, Eike! I try to keep the batteries out of the D200 cause I know that camera drains them even if not in use. Hopefully there's another trip there in the near future!

Today I went with my boys to an aircraft museum which is housed in an underground former air force base close to the city of Gothenburg on the West Coast of Sweden.
Inspired by Rafael's photos I took the AI 16 F3.5 fisheye with me. Sadly my battery was empty after a few shots and I had neglected to bring a spare.
I had the same issue with the S5 Pro, the same body as your D200. The following solved the issue and perhaps may be of help to you.
Dipped Q-Tips in DeoxIT D100L and cleaned the camera's battery contacts plus the inside of the battery door. Also cleaned the contacts of all my batteries. Only need to a tiny amount of the cleaner on the end of the Q-Tip and repeat as necessary.
I also had to remove the battery from The S5 due to drain but no longer after this very easy procedure.
