Whenever I try to go to my live view the error 30 message pops up. I can still use my viewfinder but as soon as I try to go to live view or even try to record a video the error pops up. I have an EOS 850D. Please help with a solution

jfavors55,

This issue has come up before. The solution was, ""Err 30" indicates that malfunctions related to the power source have been detected. This could also be a shutter malfunction.

The solution was to take your battery out and clean the contacts with a microfiber cloth, even if they look clean. Leave your battery out for at least one minute. Re-insert your battery and try again. If you still get the error, try another battery.

If the problem persists, you'll have to get your camera repaired.
