jacketsdb23 49 #1 August 18, 2008 I know this camera is used widely in skydiving so I wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue. On Saturday when I turned my camera on (fully charged battery) the camera wouldn't turn on and my CF light did not register a card. I finally was able to get it to turn on (took battery out for about 20 seconds). It did this several times over the course of Saturday. On Sunday I got the same issue, except at one point it actually froze and was still "On" when I turned my camera off. This happened in the plane. I thought I fixed it but in freefall it stopped taking photos right after the exit shots. I can no longer rely on the camera until i figure this thing out. I'm not even sure where to start. First thing I'm going to do is check the firmware and make sure I have the latest. I'm asking here to just get a jump start on what to check and obviously I'll contact Canon. I bought the camera second hand from a buddy who used it very sparingly. I have jumped this camera for over a month with no problems. The only thing that has changed recently was I bought 2 512 CF cards. Thanks in advance for any insight or help.

The111 1 #2 August 18, 2008 See my reply in the other post about the same issue, I think this is what you are experiencing. In short, it happens when the camera goes into power save mode with a remote attached. Disable power save mode (not sure if that's the exact name) or don't allow it to reach that time.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
