E25 I have a canon SD10 and I get error E25 Any suggestions as to what this might be? The SD card is fine since it works well on Preview mode. The battery is fully charged. Any help would be appreciated

Anonymous Apr 01, 2008

This problem has occurred for second time since purchasing the camera.

The first time I took it back to the shop in Sydney city and was charged AU$350 to repair.

I have seen this error often since but one out of 10 times it will rectify.

Now for some months the zoom does not budge.

I am unable to pay $350 again and do love this camera so I took it upon myself to open very carefully and I think I have found the seemingly simple problem!

When the casing is removed and I very gently and with correct level of pressure on the BLUE PLASTIC contact below the lens the zoom responds every single time like new!

However when I carefully replace the casing, the problem returns.

I can see on the bottom right hand corner of this blue plastic a small screw hole, but as the casing is not fixed appropriately the hole would not take a screw. The blue plastic is fixed rigid and not possible to move.

It appears to be a fault. Would I be correct?

What can I do now? How to rectify and what steps to take.

PLEASE HELP!

I had the exact same error on my camera and found this bit of information: It sound like a problem with the zooming mechanism (lens would not retract or extended) Press the power button on and hold it down while extending and twisting the telescopic zoom lens. It might fix you problem. In any case it could not make it worse. I tried this on my camera and it is now fully functional.

Generally speaking, there is nothing you can do to correct the problem other than to send the camera to the appropriate factory service center for correction of the error. Following the repair cost you should decide, whether it worth it.

This happened to my Camera and I fixed it by turning it on and hitting the back of it hard and the lens retracted back into the camera.

Canon Power Shot A400 will only work with original Canon SD card

Make sure you are using an SD card and not an SDHC card. The SDHC protocol is newer than your camera, and your camera does not support it. SD cards have capacities up to 2 GB. Your camera should work properly with any SD or MMC card.

Error 50

The "E50" error code indicates formatting a SD card has failed. Solution To clear the "E50" error, try performing the following procedure. 1. Try using another SD card. If you have another SD card, try loading it in the camera. If the error code is not displayed when the other SD card is loaded, there may be something wrong with the first one rather than with the camera. 2. Use your computer's ScanDisk utility to check the SD card for errors. Use ScanDisk to check the SD card for card error or card failure. Refer to the instruction manual for your operating system or Windows Help for further instructions. (If you are using a Macintosh, use the "Disk First Aid" program to check for card error or card failure. Refer to the instruction manual for your Macintosh OS for further information.) Be sure to back up the data on the SD card on the computer before you check the SD card. If a card error or card failure occurs when you use your computer's ScanDisk, there is something wrong with the SD card. Follow ScanDisk's on-screen instructions to solve the problem.
