Hi, my EOS1100D was not turning on, i left the card battery and lens off and reformatted the card and it then turns on. When you try to take a photograph, the shutter opens for a long time a few seconds then shuts and in the viewfinder it says Err. If you don't try to take a picture and scroll through the menu, it sticks and then the screen flickers and is like double vision, it then flickers to white screen and back. At this point no buttons do anything including the on/off. If you take the battery out and refit it then doesnt turn on unless you leave it for several minutes. Any ideas anyone?
Just put it all back together. Together no particular order put the lens back on uh put the camera uh battery. And scan disk back in and then see if it fires.

Basically the same happens each time more or less (once left for a period of time) I've tried a new battery too and formatted cards etc
the battery must be charged first.
it must be. lost the manual for the cam?
get it read how to charge the battery.
other than, that , it needs service so take it to a shop.

only have that 11 year old battery?
and expect it to work?
never have just one battery, or when it fails
the camera is now stuck in down time
even and external recharge power pack for mine.
so can use the cam and recharge the other.
mine even turns on with now LENS. and get fog for viewer but the CCD works inside.
batteries are the #1 weak point.
besides dropped, soaked or full of sand.
1200mAh 7.4V Lithium-Ion
it is not charged or at 11 years it died and vast do a decade old.
