I just received my EOS R1 today and unfortunately it won't turn on!
Here is what happened:
- I inserted a dead battery and the camera did not turn on. The camera turned on later when I inserted a charged battery. I selected a language from the view finder in the initial setup screen. On the screen to select the date and time I opened the LCD display to continue setup from there. At this point the viewfinder and LCD went blank and would not come back up. I waited a few minutes, then removed the battery as the camera seemed stuck.
- now the displays will not turn on. No lights will turn on. I've tried removing the battery for a few minutes. I've tried removing any attached lens as well as any memory card. I tried attaching to a computer via USB to see if EOS Utility would recognize it, but it did not. Nothing seems to help.
- If I put the bottom of the camera right up to my ear and insert a battery into the camera, I can hear a momentary buzz, so something is powering on, but nothing functions from there.
Does anyone have ideas on how to force a factory reset with some combinations of holding down the buttons while putting the battery in? Or any other ideas to get this working?
