I purchased a canon powershot S50 camera. I haven't taken 50 pictures (some of the pictures were erased) total with camera the original 32mg cf card is still in camera. I turned on camera, noticed camera shows low battery symbol. I turned off camera, charged battery up. Installed battery back in camera, turned it back on, got ready to take a picture, pressed down shutter button.

I heard a "pop" sound like a flash bulb going off. The LCD was so dark you couldn't see anything on screen. I contacted Canon and they said the flash was worn out or it had blown. I was told Canon could fix it for me for about 150. I paid a lot for this camera -- it will not take 50 pictures without problems. I am thinking of buying another brand.

I acquired a Canon Powershot A70 recently and was using it well until last Christmas when it bogged down (Maybe due to numerous pictures during the season). I complained to Canon on Dec 28, 2005 why the digicam suddenly went blank without any reason and they seem to know the reason and volunteered to repair it immediately for free. They were so nice they even promised to lend me a service unit which they did not fulfill unitl now. They promised to repair it for 14 days but until this writing, I have no news what happened to my digicam. Their operators answering the customers questions are so evasive about the status of my camera. I read from the internet that there is a class suit being readied against Canon. I want to join it.
