EOS Rebel T7 Flashing green light and busy message. Stopped working…??

I am a newbie to using this camera (Canon Rebel EOS T7). I ve used it for a couple hundred pictures and then I am unable to get the shutter to take a picture. In the view finder, I get a flashing green light with a number 9 next to it. I also get a busy message that flashes, the ISO is 3200 and have it set on the A+ on the dial… Like I said, its work the whole time until Bam…I am not sure if a setting got changed that I can’t figure out? Like I said - total newbie here!

What kind of SD cards are you using. Full Size or a Micro SD Card in an adapter. It's best to discontinue the use of an adapted Micro SD Card. The camera wasn't designed to use it. Also what size SD Card are you using. It's best to use 32GB SDHC cards. Use of a larger 64GB or SDXC Cards causes problems with lower end cameras. So stick with 32GB Class 10 SD Cards.

Try resetting the camera settings and custom functions back to factory defaults.

Another thought, have you tried another lens to see if it makes a difference?

I am having the same issues as you but mine will not take a picture in AF or Manual focus. I have a black screen on the back and I can’t get into any menu options. Does anyone have any suggestions?

You may have an issue with your onboard flash needing sufficient time to recharge.
