Has anyone else seen a similar problem?

I plan on calling Canon for warranty repair next Monday, but wanted to
see if anyone else has had a similar problem.

In 4 years of use, my older 20D never had any problems.
I have owned a 20D and 40D and everytime there has been a problem it
is me.

Canon has an 800 number to call that stays open until 10PM Eastern
Time. Each time I have called they talked me through things and
pointed out where in the manual the problem is discussed.
Your first step would be to take the battery out for ten minutes. Then,
if that doesn't reset/fix it, and a quick go through of menu settings
has been done, dial 1-800......
I'll try the battery, but I can't go through the menu settings without
the use of the small thumbwheel. I can't get there from here!

Gary
Of course, you can. To tab through the menu, use the 8-way button above the
large wheel on the back. It does the same thing that the small wheel up top
does, in that context.

Thanks for the tip...I didn't know about that way of working through the
menus.

However, my problem remains...I talked to Canon today and they agree
there is a problem. I have a return authorization number and I am going
to be sending in the camera Tuesday.

Gary
I still use the 20d I think its a great camera. I also would like to
change to a newer camera, any ideas?
