T3i pcitures are coming out black

[itsjojo]

Hi All!

My t3i was dropped and the viewfinder became very blurry. I had it repaired and just picked it up today.  They overhauled the eye-piece diopter & now the viewfinder is no longer blurry.  Great!

However, I'm noticing now that all modes with ISO-auto are causing the pictures to come out black.  

In a given example, the viewfinder date reads as follows: 

Shutter Speed/ f-stop: 60  4.0

ISO 400

Could there be a possible problem with the Scene Ingelligent Auto function?

Thanks!

First thing to do.  Reset the camera to defaults and retest.  Might want to test with a second lens if you have more than one.

Have to ask..  Did Canon or a Canon authorized service center perform this repair?

Yes, take it back...  if the reset doesn't help.

No, take it back and hope. 

Admittedly, I'm not the advocate for old tech.  I never would have paid to have a T3i repaired. 

Start with a reset and post back with those results.

When you take one of these balck images through the viewfinder, does the viewfinder black out?

It could be a stuck mirror.

"My t3i was dropped and the viewfinder became very blurry."

This is where you should have cut your loses and bought a new (another) camera.  You still need to do so. You can buy a working used T31 for $200 to $300 bucks, with lens(s).

Resetting it is not going to help since it had to be reset when they repaired it.
