Digital Rebel Err99 shutter failure
I have a Digital Rebel that's less than 6 months old and has taken
less than 2000 pictures. This afternoon it started flashing "Err99" and not taking pictures. I've only used Canon lenses except for a Vivitar macro. Cleaning the contacts didn't fix it. Taking out both batteries didn't fix it. Searching around on the net, I found reports of Err99 being produced by shutter failure. I tried the sensor cleaning function and sure enough, the shutter didn't open. I'm going to have to call Canon tomorrow. I'm thoroughly disgusted that it happened with the camera so new. It's under warranty, but I'm on vacation this week and I was hoping to get a lot of use out of the camera. How common is this failure mode? |
