A day that I've feared has come. Rewind to about an hour ago. Camera in hand, I flounced into the playroom to take a "before" photo for the weekly challenge on A Bowl Full of Lemons. I adjusted my settings, opened the window for some natural light, aimed to shoot and....NOTHING. Well, my lens is trying to focus, but the shutter said the equivalent of, "Yeah, no thanks." I thought maybe I had something set incorrectly, so I switched back to auto. Nothing. My camera is going on 4 years old. No warranty. No insurance. I'm not sure that having it repaired would be worth it at this point. I have a couple more things I want to try, but I'm afraid my plans for saving up for a new camera may have to be sped up a bit. NERDS!

Sally...you MUST get the personal article policy insurance on your next camera...it's SO worth it! And totally cheap! I hear your pain!!!!! I am still living with my point and shoot and waiting not so patiently for our tax return...it's slowwww this year!
Good luck with your camera:)
How miserable! There is nothing like going to take a photo only to have nothing happen and its usually at the worst moment, right? Hope you can find some great camera deals : )

Try changing the internal (cell) battery. My Canon 20D did this, and changing that internal battery saved it's life!
I will try that, Andrea! It seems to be behaving for the moment, but I hadn't considered that. Thanks!
