Black Screen I turned on my camera a few days ago and the screen is blank, when I take photos thay are also black, but if I scroll through old images I can still see them, have I pressed something on the camera by mistake? Can this be fixed by myself or is it something that can only be fixed by a professional? Your help would be much appreciated as I have no idea why it has started doing this!

Known issue!

A couple of weeks ago i turned on my dear S2 IS and.. no image!! i could only see the menus .... Actually, I had to do it 3 times before the screen got back the image.

dropped or banged it and broke the LCD and speaker by the description of the fault.

bad sign... when the CP turns black, the CPU IC maybe damaged... an expert cellphone technician may fix it but it have a 50-50 chance or best to buy a new CP... sorry for your broken CP... but still hope that it can be fix or if you can afford a new one...

Stephan is exactly right. I have a FE-4000 and the LCD screen is most likely dead. As Stephan said, the screen should be replaced by a professional.

Cheers to all

hi.. I also had this problem with canon ixus 75. i took it to the service center and they just knocked its lens(lightly) when it was on ON mode, then suddenly the screen started working.
But he said that u should use it on regular basis for few days and if the problem occurs again. then we will have to change the sensor, I think he said sensor or something like that.

The hand with parenthesis is your image stabilization. It sounds like if your images are turning out black, you may need service.

Try hitting your display button a few times and see if anything shows up on the screen.

My viewing screen is black. I had successfully taken a picture, viewed it, and turned the camera off. When I turned it back on about 30 seconds later, the viewing sceen was black. I can 'take' a picure, but it comes out black. Help!

Sounds like a defective CCD imager. You may be in luck. Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. Please check the following two links for more info:
