My camera was working fine until my son decided to play with the settings.My screen is now blank and nothing happens with any button I press to see the screen. I can still take photos but can't change any settings, check photos I have taken or take photos seeing the main screen. I have a friends daughters 21st coming up and need my camera working.Please help.x

Does the Menu screen come up when you hit Menu? If you can get into the Menu, you can go to the Yellow tabs and find the command that says to return to default settings.

Also, here is your manual if you don't have it:

Typically this is the "info" button. It toggles through several optional things that can be displayed on the rear LCD... one of the options is to have the rear LCD blank. But you should still get a display if you press the menu or playback (image review) button.
Press the "info" button a few times (with camera powered up of course) until it returns to what you want displayed on the rear LCD.
You can adjust screen brightness, but generally not to the point that it's off completely (other than pressing the 'info' button as described above.) So I doubt he played with brightness.
