I bought my camera a month ago and had to send it back to Canon because I got error 70. Sometimes I just have to turn off the camera or remove the battery, but other times the error persists.
I've been noticing that this is a common error. If anyone reading this has had this same problem, I'd like to hear your experience.
I've been thinking about exchanging the camera for another Canon model, even though I only bought one.

I forgot to update. After sending my camera to Canon, it took them about two weeks to find the problem. In the end, they didn't find it and did a general cleaning. I'm currently using my camera and haven't had this problem again. I also purchased the CarePack Plus.

Update to my issue...both cameras have been sent to Canon and they claimed it was a firmware issue....got them both back and for months the issue has been getting worse and worse. My cameras now freeze 10-15 times per day per job. Both bodies have this issue. I have lost a lot of respect for Canon to release such faulty cameras. I'll be calling their CPS and complaining non-stop.
