I have a VIXIA HFM41 camcorder. Suddenly stopped working.
I turn on the camera. It begins to access the built-in memory (I can see the red led "Access"). Then this red led is off and no image is displayed on the LCD screen but is seems to be on. Like it is a black image. If I close the LCD screen the image is off. The controls on the camera (the ones discovered when open the LCD screen do not work at all)
The On/Off led is green and the off button won't work. I cannot turn the camcorder off.
The only way to turn it off is taking out the battery.
Help!
Thanks

Even when this was not the model it seems that the problem is across all Canon models.
Does someone know what Canon is doing about it? or more important Is there a way to avoid the "black screen"???
