I need HELP !! My 2 month old G5 has developed a bug that I can't get rid of. If I turn it on in record mode with the LCD turned inwards, i.e off, it works fine. If, however, I turn the LCD around to face outwards ( ON ) or try to review my shots on the LCD it gives me an error code ( E24 ) then turns itself off !! :cry:

It hasn't recieved any knocks or shocks or water splashed on it or been fiddled with. My wife used it to show the inlaws some shots using the AV cable on the TV, and it has been like this since. I don't see how using the AV cable could cause this problem, so I'm not blaming my wife......yet :D

Please can someone help :cry:

I know it sometimes happens with G2
i guess this is the same problem
I don't know what causes the problem but replacing the lcd helped with my G2!
you still got warrenty so send it in because there's not a lot you can do yourself to fix it

I was hoping there would be something I could do myself as the camera was bought on eBay from the US and only has an US warranty, I live in the UK so I'm going to have to pay for it myself :cry:

Does anyone know if I could send it over to the US to get it fixed under warrnty ? I have a friend who goes over there every two or three months.

you could phone Canon UK and ask if they will repair it under warranty.
i know Canon netherlands is very easy with these things 8)
