Blank LCD screen

Thanks for that link, I will keep it handy!

Be careful however, because the exact same symptom can be caused by a stuck shutter. To tell if it is a stuck shutter follow these steps:

1. Turn off the flash!!
2. Look down into the lens.
3. Take a picture.

Did you see anything change? The opening at the center should be momentarily covered by a matte black shield. If you take a picture and see no change inside the lens then the shutter is stuck closed or open.

If Canon finds your shutter to be stuck and not a CCD failure, the repair will not be free.. very not free.

l just got my camera back from Canon, the CCD card was the culprit, the camera was fixed for free. I had the repair sent, done and returned back to me all within 8 business days. I am so impressed! Thanks David for the initial check list. That helped me to determine if the problem was possibly the CCD card. Nopix - Thanks so much! I am happy to have my old bud back in working order. I will never own any thing else but a canon.
