I have a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi camera which just stopped working.....dead as a door nail!   I had gone outside; took some pictures; came back into the house and tried to turn it on to view some of them and it was dead!  Just like that.  I looked for micro switches; changed batteries; removed the card and replaced it; removed the card and the battery and held down the shutter release button for 15 seconds; and all to no avail.   Any other suggestions?  Sure would be appreciated.  The camera takes very nice pictures and works like a dream when working of course!

It has been a good run, but:

Thanks KVBarkley but I think I will try mouth to mouth resusitation first.     Really, I will disassemble it starting at the  power and move through the camera checking to see where the power stops.   Then if that doesn't work I will take your advice.   Sigh!
