Canon Support told me to take the battery out for 20 minutes.
I said are you kidding I am at a wedding and I am suppose to wait 20 minutes after everyone left.
So guess what the company is going to replace it. I tried to tell them to give another camera to no avail.-   Guest

same problem for me.. got it for christmas, tok a few pics and turned it on on my vacation on the 30th and got the lense error. now the thing is useless, and the warranty may cover it but as it is a gift, how does one get the receipt??
i press the power button on my camera, and it beeps and with a black screen a message saying "lens error, restart camera" comes up. i dont know how to restart my camera though.
