Problem for Canon PowerShot S1 IS Digital Camera

Image blacked out on LCD and can not see image in view finder




By sandra1 on Nov 30, 2006

" "
I can turn the camera off and on. The auto focus is moving out and in, but the image on the LCD Screen is black and if I look through the view finder I still can't see anything. I did try new batteries and made sure the settings were right. Does anyone have an idea on what this could be? Or how to fix it?

Thanks,
Sandra
