Canon Z90W 35mm camera

I am on my second Z90W now, the first one having been replaced by the retailer as an act of good faith, (It was sent for repair to Canon UK but came back with a "no fault found" report). A couple of years after getting the replacement the second camera has now developed the same fault. Before I have used the full roll of film, the camera starts to rewind, it is intermittent and can happen at any part of the roll or ocassionally not at all. I have tried changing the battery a number of times but that does not seem to be the problem. I would appreciate if anyone out there can help to remedy the fault as the camera is now out of warranty and if I do pay for repair I may get the same response as the first time from Canon. Robert

SOURCE: Powers on, wont load film, beeps constantly, Can't select a mode,

I had a similar problem today with my camera. I'm not an expert on Cannon cameras or any cameras for that matter, but this is what I did to fix the problem.

I removed the bottom cover(has 6 screws i believe) carefully sliding the cover up starting near the battery cover. Holding the camera still I checked what gears I could to make sure they were free, but one small gear that moves up and down was stuck. I applied a very small amount of force to the gear to free it, reattached the cover and all the screws, and BAM! I was back to taking pictures.

Hopes this helps.

p.s if you can't find one of the screws its under the battery cover flap :).

SOURCE: hello, just found my 35mm

Did you remember to push the rewind release button, on the bottom of the camera first? Failure to do so will either not allow you to rewind the film (without applying a lot more force than needed), rip off the film sprocket holes, damage the camera's internal gearing, or any number of other nasty things.

There should be a small button on the camera's bottom baseplate, press it in and it should rewind smoothly.

The split fibre sheets behind the lens got dislocated. Since then, the camera clicks but the film does not gets exposed and the automatic flash does not work.

That is the shutter.Since no pictures are coming out,it needs repair.If you have never fixed one before,I suggest sending it to a repair place to fix it.It will be quite expensive though.Probably $70-$100 minimum.If you want to self-repair,or attempt to,you will need what is called a jeweler's set of screwdrivers.They are cheap,probably about $3-$4.Get the kind with individual screwdrivers also,not the changeable tips.Should be available at some major retail stores or hardware stars.You will have to contact Canon for a replacement part also.You just need to make sure that is the problem and they will help you withit a little.Ask for a parts diagram also.The shutter sounds like the problem because it also will trigger the flash.Good luck,Greg

My cannon eos rebel x 35mm wont take pictures on auto focus acts like the timing is off. Works fine on manual focus. Have already tried different lenses, batteries, and cleaning.

Your AF module needs to be replaced. Or maybe the mirror part that bounces light to the AF module.

Another possible issue is light. The AF sensors need a certain amount to light to be able to see if its in focus. Some lenses don't allow that much light to pass, so the sensors can't focus the lens. Try a lens that passes more light, like the 50mm f/1.8 or point your lens at a very bright scene.

If increasing the light level doesn't solve it, it needs repair. You might check Ebay for a "parts" Rebel to have spare parts for your good one.

The film door on the back of my camera broke tonight, a very small piece of plastic came off and promptly fell into the grass. Even if I hold the door shut there is no connection. What do I need to have...

Hello. Repairing the door latch shouldn't be that much of a headache. Definitely send the camera in to a reputable facility. Don't send it in through a retail store! (They tack on needless charges and add it to the bill *you* see.) Check with CanonUsa if you can't find a good repair shop. Below is the address I got when checking with Canon Support. Hope I helped you!---Rick

Broken Canon camera

Take it to a camera repair shop to get a quote (the camera should be able to be sent to a repairer through any camera retailer).

When you have the quote - decide whether it is more economical to repair or replace.

Good luck.
