Mirror locked up at 125th




By Bernabia on Jun 01, 2008

" "
Mirror locked up at 125th or slower and infill flash does not flash. At faster speed it works fine. The display on top of camera goes virtually blank and battery display flahes as if the battery was exhausted. If shutter release is pressed again then camera goes back to normal 'ready to shoot' mode.As flash is synced to 125th I suspect that the flash is part of the the problem (or maybe it is just coincidence) I have tried cleaning, used different lenses and put in a brand new battery. Any clues?

This is NOT a digital but a film camera Canon EOS 100/Elan bought about 10 years ago and working up until a few months ago.
