Recently (today) me and my mom found it, charged up the battery a bit, and it turned on, the battery hasn't fully charged, and unsure if it will, I turned it on and the screen is just... white? No options nothing, it takes photos the flash works and everything, is it possible water damage? Does it look like a battery problem? I would love to use the camera.</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="1000030601.jpg" style="width: 4000px;"><img src="https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/74562i68EA5F6D94AA51EA/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="1000030601.jpg" alt="1000030601.jpg" /></span></P><P> </P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 31 Mar 2026 23:52:00 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/Powershot-SX420-Is-water-damage/m-p/591590#M20951 Isabells_xoxo 2026-03-31T23:52:00Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/Powershot-SX420-Is-water-damage/m-p/591653#M20952 <P>Greetings,&nbsp;</P> <P>Sadly the camera has been damaged.&nbsp; It's 10 years old.&nbsp; Repair is likely to cost more than replacement.</P> <P>I'd start shopping for a new camera.&nbsp; Sorry. <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":confused_face:">😕</span></P> Wed, 01 Apr 2026 15:08:01 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/Powershot-SX420-Is-water-damage/m-p/591653#M20952 shadowsports 2026-04-01T15:08:01Z
