What's wrong with recent Canon PowerShot SD series??

Who knows, I also see a lot of complaints about the newer Powershots. Maybe Canon is cramming too many megapixels in their newer cameras. My cousin owns the SD940is and loves it. I own the SD1100is and I can't complain about the pictures it takes. I would take some of those negative complaints with a grain of salt though. I think as long as you don't expect DSLR quality prints out of a Powershot then you'll be fine. I can't imagine giving a Powershot a 1 star review, maybe if it was dead on arrival or the battery exploded inside the camera. Maybe Canon is resting on its laurels a bit. Do some research before you buy a camera to avoid disappointment.

That problem occurs with many Canons. Canon knows about the problem, but has done nothing to help people with the issue. When we e-mailed them about the error, they basically just wanted to sell us a new printer. This is part of their response, "...You are eligible for Canon's Loyalty Program. This is for out of warranty units which have been diagnosed to require service, or for some reason are incompatible with a new or upgraded system. This option allows you a one-time opportunity to purchase a replacement product, discounted from the list price, and with free FedEx Ground shipping. If you would like to take part in this option, please call our Sales Department..." Our printer wasn't that old, just past the one-year warranty. So, we bought and new printer, but it is not a Canon. If you visit the Canon Forum website and search for the error, you will find more frustrated customers with the same problem. Sorry.

I'd try returning the camera, I returned mine a month after purchase. Just go to your Amazon account and click on returns...see what happens :) Good luck!

I've had the same problem. I don't have the patience to call tech support so I just bought new SD cards. Each time it fixed the problem. Not ideal due to cost but it works.

I have the same problem. I don't like this camera because of this. I had a Fuji before that worked fine. Fortunately I have a Canon that I bought last year that works. What a let down Fuji. You won't get any more of my money. I actually bought the camera to use for work, taking pictures of computers, etc., but it's almost useless for that even.

Thanks for the reply. We actually ended up returning the camera to FP after calling the help center and trying different cards. The card reader must have been broken, because the replacement camera they sent us, read all the cards we had tried in the old one... FP did send the new camera with no problem.

Same here, I got my D50 nearly 3 years ago and also have been plagued by the sticky shutter problem starting after 1.5 years. I have been taking lots of photos (29500 shutter releases so far) and used the extended warranty. I'm also disappointed by this shutter and considering returning the camera again for repair.I envy the time where people would keep their film camera for 20+ years... (maybe they did not take that many photos :)

I can't pre-order... Too little faith in canon cameras when they are released. I will probably get it down the road (feb-march) if their aren't any issues. Would upgrade from mkII. Would be nice if canon could release the 1d and 1ds as one camera, and just allow us to switch between high fps and high MP. But alas, I'll refrain.

Yes and it's also having rapid battery discharge while just shooting photos compared to the previous Canons I've owned. Disappointed how quickly the battery must be changed.

My FosCam does not have any of those problems. I would first look at the SD Card. I use a SanDisk Ultra 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 card. The speed of the SD card is in part defined by its class rating and will impact the quality of the photos. If the SD card is not a problem then I would contact FosCAm and speak with their Support people.

I have a Canon, and didn't have a problem. Maybe try googling your problem, someone probably has a solution already out there.

Wow, sounds like the cam is at least _partially_ to blame if it gets that hosed over any memory card that does anything less than short out connections.You may have done this but just in case:-Are any of the pins in the CF slot on your camera bent? The SD adapter might have done that.-Is there any global reset for your camera? The controller in it is likely confused, but not _broken_ per se.

Had same problem with this model, yet had never had this before with serveral other Canons. I was told by knowledgeable friends it was a bad CCD. I sent mine back and Amazon gladly gave me full credit. Did not purchase another one. Still have older models. Thanks...

Dear Karen:Thank you for your reply. I have also contacted Canon. They were going to send me to the nearest service center, until I told them about your feedback with the same problem. Thanks for your help. I have received my refurbished replacement. I hope this one will stay function. Jeannette

I out off updating my windows. But u might try downlink software from canon again. I had to do that once when I had another update. Sorry I couldn't help.

From what I've read, the SD card integration is pretty much the same as before.Hopefully, they'll fix it in a firmware update, but I doubt it.I think they just released a new firmware update on July 29.
