SOURCE: canon powershot a620 shutter won't open

You need to clean the contacts inside the battery compartment. Do this with a Q-Tip swab dampened in rubbing alcohol. It would be good to clean the battery and the charger also. Thank you,Dana

SOURCE: My Canon PowerShot A620 has a black screen, any

I Think it's a contact failure between ccd/shutter and electronic card. Moisture?
I have the same problem after 2 years. The repair center change the optical device. After 2 news years, same problem!
The screen is black, and a noise at power on, present when the A620 run friendly, is not present (shutter)? And when the shutter work (no screen black), I have line on the picture.
I can use my A620 with this manipulation:
-Power-on the A620.
-Put zoom to maximum.
-Change mode to viewer.
-Change mode to photo... and shutter is open, no line..
- If I modify zoom, line reapared for several resolution!
I hope my english is clear... It's not my language!!

SOURCE: Canon A620 is taking black images/ Can't see images on screen

First try pressing the DISP or DISPLAY button on the back of your camera. If that didn't fix it... A stuck shutter is another common failure mode for digital cameras. The symptoms of a stuck or "sticky" shutter are very similar to CCD image sensor failure. The camera may take black pictures (for shutter stuck closed), or the pictures may be very bright and overexposed, sometimes with lines, especially when taken outdoors (for shutter stuck open). To confirm a stuck shutter, put the camera in any mode other than "Auto", and turn the flash OFF (you don't want to blind yourself for the next step). Next look down the lens and take a picture. You should see a tiny flicker in the center of the lens as the shutter opens and closes. If no movement is seen, then you likely have a stuck shutter. If so, please see this link for further info and a simple fix that may help.
