Problem for Canon EOS 30D Body Only Digital Camera
Canon EOS 30D shuts down when I try to take a photo
By bamjidevilph on Sep 19, 2009
Hello, my name is Jess and I have a slight problem with my camera, and I was wondering if anyone could help me out.
Well, just today, I was mucking around with my camera (Canon EOS 30D) and when I tried to take a photo, if didn't happen. It struck me as strange because the camera was still considered "ON" and there was nothing on the dials or anything.
So I pressed the shutter a few times and still nothing.
Then I took the battery out and turned it Off/On again.
And then it "works", but as soon as I try to take anothing photo...
IT DOES THE EXACT SAME THING
Now, I'm freaking out a bit because I have a trip coming up, to Melbourne, which I plan to take heaps of photos, both just in general and open shutter.
I would really really really appreciate if anyone can help me. I would greatly appreciate this.
Thank-you.
All feedback is welcome. :)

The
problem that you describe is frequently due to a corrosion buildup that
prevents the full power of the batteries from flowing to the camera.
Remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry
cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel
wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the
battery compartment during the cleaning, then wipe both ends of the
batteries and reinsert them into the camera. This cleaning clears the
problem about 90% of the time, and I hope it works for you.
