I am an old Newbie to Digital photography. I am trying to find out why my camera is not giving me any error messages, but is taking Black photos when I shoot. I have gone through all of the manual and I think I've tried every setting there is to see if it will record the image as taken, but still a black photo shows up on my LCD screen. I have changed both sets of batteries with new, I tried 3 different media cards, changed settings in all different combinations, still nothing. I tried to shoot with the nose open (the area that would be covered by the lense) to see if it is the shutter action I hear when I shoot, but the camera won't function without the lense on. The camera seems to go through the funtions as normaly preformed, it just turns out a black image with no histogram information, but the box is there as if there was something to read.
I tried to call the place I bought the camera from but they have no clue. And of corse the manufacture was sent an email but, forever I don't have. Does anyone have any idea what is happening here?
I put the camera away one day and the next day I take it out to use and it takes Black Pictures. Go Figure. Please Help if you have any resorses to info on this . Thank you.
