Bob: Thanks for response. I will try Canon support, though from number of postings it seems a lot of people are seeing this. Just not clear what worked, if anything, for any of them. Sam
My t3i comes on for a second and then goes dead. Won't take any pictures and nothing appears on screen. I bought new Canon brand battery, charged it, and same thing happened. What's the fix? I checked the battery door and SD card door.
