Canon PowerShot SD30: Memory Card Error keeps showing

Sun, 24 Mar 2024 08:02:25 -0700

I bought a second hand camera and it came without the SD card, when I tried the card I use for my elph 330, it said there was a memory card error so I bought a smaller storage size and it was an older version, it still says memory card error. The memory card is not locked, I'm unsure what to do.

Canon PowerShot SX60 HS: Can I buy just the front metal ring for zoom?

Sat, 17 Feb 2024 23:14:48 -0700

I bought one of these cameras (Powershot SX60 HS) on ebay, and mysteriously it is missing just the front metal ring of the zoom assembly (the part engraved with 16.1MP, 65x, and "ultrasonic")? Where might I find just this part (I don't need the whole front assembly).

Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS: Why does my camera say memory card error even when I insert a new one?

Sat, 10 Feb 2024 14:24:55 -0700

I dropped my camera and was able to fix it and it was working good for the first day, then the next day it said memory card error. I went to the store and bought a new memory card and it worked for the first 5 hours, then i went to the store and bought another and it only worked for the first few hours again. Nothing was wrong with the camera and pictures but I cant seem to get a memory card to last longer then a few hours now. What do i need to fix?

Canon PowerShot SX50 HS: Screen is black, shows menu and pictures I've taken

Sun, 10 Dec 2023 23:41:25 -0700

I am on a bicycle trip through South East Asia, in Thailand right now and I need 🙏🏼 my camera 🙏🏼.

My mobile isn't able to take good pictures 🙈.

I was on a trip through the Jungle took pictures... sometimes the lens needs awfully long to show a sharp picture or shows it for a moment and goes back to blurry when pushing the button. Changed battery and the screen turned black. If I try to take a photo nothing shows on the screen only the menu options and the pictures I have already taken are displayed.

I reset to default settings but nothing changed.

I am very happy and thankful 🙏🏼 for every help 😊.

Canon PowerShot A80: My camera is A810 and is not listed; I have a black screen

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 07:00:52 -0700

I have a PowerShot A810 HD which is not listed above. I had this camera in a box for many years brand new and just now started using it. I’ve been using it for about 3 months now when all of a sudden my screen turned black. The camera starts up, it takes pictures fine (I just can’t see what I’m taking a picture of). The camera turns off and on fine and the lens retracts, it uploads to my computer, but the screen is black. This camera is like new since I’ve never used it. I have read the numerous complaints from other people who have the same problem. I also saw how many cameras were recalled, but for some reason I can’t seem to find this model anywhere. Did I accidentally touch something to cause the screen to turn black? I recharged the batteries and left them in overnight, because I read that the flash has to recharge, but when I woke up in the morning, still a black screen. When I turn the camera on, I could see the screen flashes that shows Canon, but then turns black again. Please help

Canon IXUS: Wet ELPH 180 - now bad light meter

Fri, 22 Nov 2024 19:04:28 -0700

Got my ELPH 180 totally wet - but clean water. Dried it out over a period of 2 weeks. Camera seems to function okay except that the part that measures and adjusts for light is bad. LCD gives perfectly normal light presentation but when the picture is taken, the light overwhelms the photo and the result is not usable - close to a white page. Which part do I need to replace and where can I buy it?

Canon PowerShot SX50 HS: Camera functions have gone haywire

Wed, 09 Aug 2023 13:11:15 -0700

Press on/off lens dont move out,just the LCD screen lights up with a rolling clock displayed. 2. Then press shutter button and lens move out. 3. Lens will not zoom out until you press shutter button at same time,they will then zoom back in so long as camera lens are still focused.4. Menu and display buttons do not get any response but mode dial works. Camera still takes photos. This occured whilst editing and deleting photos,all functions were working perfectly untill then. Not been exposed to water,dropped once years ago and it survived that.
