shutter release not working S100

Hello,

I am suddenly having problems with my S100. It will not take the picture when I press the shutter release. In case I had accidentally changed something, I did a Reset to Defaults. Then it worked, briefly, before returning to not working. It also would not let me change My Colors.  Everything else seems to be working fine.  Any ideas?

My S100 serial# is 452032019059.

I am outside Canada too. Do you have a Consumer Protection group or equivalent where you are?

Thanks Pderbrige!

Thanks, angelower!

Mike (Product expert from Canon support) you might want to reconsider that statement now as the problem continues to be reported throughout 21 pages here and dozens of customers. To any objective eye there most definitley is a chronic, inherent shutter button failure with this S100 camera. You posted on page one, it's now up to page 21.

If you can be objective what would you think if you had a S100 with the same problems as all these good people and came across this thread of hundreds of posts reporting it ?

Also there is an obvious lack of any Canon support person now who even dares to try and comment otherwise on this growing issue. And it is growing,

Canon should not be hiding it's head in the sand as it does not seem likely that this is going to go away by itself.

Surely Canon can come up with a fair solution for these customers.

There are many thousands of people who have looked at this long thread of posts, some like myself who do not own a S100 but are watching and waiting for Canon to do the right thing.

Make no mistake this has a broader impact than the S100 owners.

Mike, I agree with you in so many ways. I posted a reccomendation to this forum to start an online petition to insist that Canon recall the issue. It appears my post was intercepted or I overlooked it. -Nik

nikfrom80s, your post was there this afternoon, then apparently was deleted by someone.

Thanks angeloweb.
