Hi guys, I need HELP! Until today my rebel t3i has been a dream to use, and I've never had any problems with it. There is no damage I'm aware of, however when I turned my camera on today and switched it to video mode the screen went black and became unresponsive. From there I attempted to switch settings but it wasn't responding. I turned the camera off, pulled out batteries and tried again and the same thing happened. I can't record or film anything.

Has it something to do with my SD card or is it a camera problem?! Help!!!!!

Hi brittanyleland!

Thanks for posting.

I do not believe something like this would be related to the memory card, but you can always try removing it from the camera and using a different memory card. If the camera still locks up and does not respond, it will need to be repaired. To setup a repair, you'll need to complete a Repair Request on our website.
