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?

I'm now the proud owner of a Sony Nex-5N. The dead Canon S100 is sitting in my desk drawer; I'm not sending it in to be repaired until Canon gives some sort of public advice about the situation.

Good point Angela. 🙂
The store stocks Canon S120s now. Which is pretty much the same as S100 but beefed up. I just don't think I should have to sink another $380 for something that's not my mistake.

If the cameras looks similar I would stay away from it and select a different series.
Angela may be right it I do not expect Canon to do anything about this which is sad. I think they already know the reason for the chronic shutter button failure also the lens error. It may be a can of worms they do not want to open.
Tronnebonne depending on which component is the source resoldering it might not be as difficult as he said. The actual shutter switch has larger solder joints and can be carefully resolderer.
