Ugh. I hope my camera has not failed. There is no image on the LCD panel. The information is there, just no image. I can fire the camera, but nothing shows on the LCD when I press the play button. An image is recorded on the SD card, but it is completely black. I have removed the battery for half an hour and reset the camera, but to no avail. Any suggestions?


"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

If you're getting a completely black image recorded on the SD card, then there's nothing wrong with your LCD; it's just showing the black image the camera took. What mode are you shooting in? What are the EXIF values for the images?

It's more likely you either have inadvertently set the camera to some "unusable" shutter/aperture/ISO combination or that the image isn't being captured correctly. However, unless it's something you've done to the settings, the camera's failed.
