DarkScout said:Has anyone called with a SD550 that has a broken flash? I have 2 that have the same problem. The flash fails to fire (and thus forces the camera to not take a picture).
I have the same problem with SD550...seems like a common problem and if you are out of warranty, its pretty much a throw-away (thats what I was told upon calling) |

Received my A80 back yesterday. They repaired it, did not replace it. Bummer, I was really hoping hoping for a free replacement. Either way my wife said she wanted to go back to this camera versus our Lumix we recently bought. The Canon taked better quality images. |

on a side note, I have a digital rebel xt that works fine but is just too bulky. maybe I'll use a refurb model as a carry with me point and shoot. |

I just called and got the Deal on my old SD200, but I was hoping just to get the camera fixed (was going to give it to my daughter) Is there a distinction they are making from E18 error and a BUSTED internal LCD screen? Anyone ever have their SD200 fixed? |

Update on the SD890IS. Lovely little camera, but couldn't justify keeping it over the wide-angle 10x zoom Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5. Sold on Craigs' List with an 8-gig SD card for $175. Ended up paying about $15 for the privilege of playing around with it for a little while (when you factor in the cost of a replacement SD card, shipping fee to Canon and tax). I can live with that. |

I just sent in a Powershot SD800 IS for repair, and they offered to repair for $137, give me a refurbed 870IS for $140, a Powershot S5 IS for $175, or a Powershot G9 for $275. Since I wasn't looking to spend anything additional from what my repair quote was, I chose to take the 870 IS. I was also charged about $20 for tax and shipping, but overall ended up only slightly more than my repair estimate, for a better camera. Great program! |

They were probably the best / cheapest to run (w/ generic ink) inkjet printers you could get. Wouldn't take much for me to give up the iP6220D and iP3500. |

Great program! IS the 870IS better than the SD800? I heard they no longer offered the wide angle lens of the 800 in any of the later 800 models. I was hoping I would be able to replace my beloved SD800 if anything ever happened to it but was afraid the wide-angle lens would not be replicated in newer models. |

hey for you guys who received the SD1000, do you find that sometimes when you press the shutter button, the camera doesn't take a picture? I'm finding the camera to be somewhat picky as to when it wants to take the picture. |

LinkyReposted so no one misses this.  The Link shows this is for the body only, but it is currently out of stock - Canon Digital Rebel XT SLR Camera Body Kit - Black Finish - Refurbished By Canon U.S.A. Unless you really want to have a Canon SLR or already have Canon Lenses, the Nikon refurbed D40x (body only) for $275 would be a better deal. LINK
The Canon XT is 4 year old technology (early 2005). With all the price drops of SLR Cameras lately, I would not even consider one unless it was in the $175 - $200 range. Even then, I would probably hold out for at least an XTi or XSi if I was going to get a Canon. |

I'm finding the camera to be somewhat picky as to when it wants to take the picture. Are you sure you have the mode switch in the correct position? If not, just call Canon back....they're very good about the 6 month warranty on the refurbs. My first SD1000 had to be replaced because of a problem with the LCD screen, and I received excellent service. |
