When shooting moon and or stars at night when first starting out scrreen will go dark when I am using eye piece as it should when eye sensor is on but screen will not turn back on when i move back from eye piece or if I press shutter half way.If I then take a piocture image will not appear for the 4 seconds I have enabled or screen will not turn back on.If I disable the eye sensor screen will stay on I then take picture and it appears for the 4 seconds as it should and then screen goes back for another shot.When I bring camera back inside screen still will not work properly until a few hours later when it is daytime.Does eye sensor have a lag time to work again becasuse of darkness so does it take a while to go back to normal?also when in total darkness does the eye sensor assume you are looking through eyepiece all the time and sense something close to sensor when in fact it is dark everywhere?After a couple of hours when in full daylight everything goes back to normal.This is driving me crazy.

tb, this sounds like an unrelated issue. It would be better if you would posts in a new thread so that answers to your question and answers to chief's question don't get confused.

chief, I don't own a T4i so I'm not sure what the expected behavior is supposed to be.
But I'm wondering... if you press the "Info", or "Menu", or image-review buttons will the display light up as expected?
