Canon PC1022 Digital Camera - Blank screen when taking photos

Make sure Image Review is set in Custom Settings. See page 90 of this manual: http://www.fixya.com/support/p418-nikon_d50_digital_camera_with_18_55mm/usermanual-D690EED-pdf

Try removing the battery or reseting the unit if there is a reset button. Otherwise it sounds like the screen died.

Hi

The Digital Rebel XTi doesn't have 'live view' mode, you can't see what you're taking a picture of before you take the picture.

For Ravi, this definitely sounds like it might be a defective CCD imager. If so, Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check the following two links for more info: http://camerarepair.blogspot.com/2007/11/canon-digital-cameras-showing-black.html

By the way, don't tell Canon that you dropped the camera. Sounds like the CCD imager was about to go bad anyway, and the drop just accelerated this.
