I am not exactly sure what you mean by blanks out. Are you just getting a black image/no exposure? What is the bit of editing required below that speed?

Post images of what you are experiencing and that will help.

I really don't understand what you are talking about but it sounds like your Mk III is done.

I agree with Ernie that your Mkiii has a serious issue that Canon may deem uneconomical to repair if the parts are even available.

I am trying to follow the narrative and the images and I am not sure what mode you are shooting in or what 100% "enhancement" is being applied but if I am interpreting this correctly it looks like the pre-enhancement image was seriously under-exposed and the no image example is basically so underexposed that it is just noise.

What ISO is the camera choosing during this sequence? Try setting ISO to 100, Tv mode, 1/250 shutter speed and take a picture in good outside lighting letting the camera choose the aperture and see what you get.

If a camera reset does not clear it, then the camera could be done. I find that shutter speed to be rather curious, though. Is there anything sitting on the flash shoe?
