Sun, 19 Apr 2026 08:55:39 -0700

So, I would like to ask: I don't have the specific batteries required for my camera. I tried inserting two batteries to test it, but the lens only extended slightly outward, and shortly thereafter, the camera shut down. Could you please tell me which batteries I should use?

I’ve replaced mother board and all corroded ribbon cables. Every thing works except for the images and on the screen is half black and half green. I think the lens’s surrounding electronics got also damaged. Not sure if anyone has this problem.

Canon PowerShot A80: No shutter sound and completely black images

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 08:03:37 -0700

Hello, I’m using a Canon PowerShot A80 and recently encountered an issue with the camera.

Previously, I could hear a distinct “click” sound when taking photos, but now there is no shutter sound at all. When I try to take pictures, the resulting images are completely black. However, the camera itself still powers on normally, the menu displays correctly, and I can view previously taken photos without any problem.

Because of this, I suspect that the shutter might be stuck closed or not functioning properly. I also tried basic troubleshooting such as restarting the camera, removing the batteries, and testing in different lighting conditions, but the issue persists.

Has anyone experienced a similar problem with this model or similar cameras?

Is this likely a shutter failure, and is there any non-invasive way to fix it without fully disassembling the camera?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

PowerShot G9X loses date/time each time you take the main battery out when the internal date battery has been depleted (maybe a CR1220?) Looking for instructions on where this battery is inside and how to replace it.

Canon PowerShot G7: LCD ZIF Connector - Ribbon Cable Insertion Difficulty

Sun, 08 Mar 2026 14:36:15 -0700

I am trying to reconnect the LCD ribbon cable to the motherboard of a Canon PowerShot G7, but I am unable to slide the cable into the connector.

The black locking lever is flipped up, but it feels like there is a physical blockage preventing the cable from entering the "mouth" of the connector. How is it actually meant to go in?
