Hi!

To ensure the most accurate information is provided, we will need to know the camera model you are using.


Thanks and have a great day!

it's a canon eos rebel xs

If the camera does nothing..... No power at all...   It may be something like the battery door or memory card door micro-switch not making contact.  

 

It might be a simple fix.

Now's the time.  A T3i or T5i would look mighty good in your hands.

Sorry about your drop. But it could be worse... it could have been the new camera. 🙂
