What is ERR 99 in 1000D DSLR Cannon
Day went not that really good. I had a problem with my 1000D DSLR Cannon Camera. When I turned on, it shows ERR 99 and I can't even understand what does it means. So I searched on the net and found these following solutions for the problem. I hope this could be the solution.
"ERR 99" is a general error code displayed by the camera when the camera
knows that something is not working properly, but not exactly what.
This error is typically associated with lens communication or shutter
mechanism issues. To isolate the cause of the issue, we suggest that
you do the following:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Remove the lens, battery, and CF card.
3. Allow the camera to sit without power for approximately 20 minutes.
4. Insert a fully charged battery, and turn on the camera.
5. Depress the shutter button as you would to take a picture.
Does the "ERR 99" message appear? If it does, then the camera should be
serviced. If it does not, then please proceed to the next set of steps:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Insert the CF card.
3. Turn on the camera.
4. Format the CF card in the camera.
5. Depress the shutter button as you would to take a picture.
Does the "ERR 99" message appear? If so, then the CF card is the most
likely source of the issue. Try using a different card.
If the message does not appear, please complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Clean the lens contacts by gently rubbing them with a pencil eraser
or soft cloth. Be careful that you do not let any debris fall into the
camera body.
3. Reattach your lens.
4. Turn on the camera.
5. Depress the shutter button as you would to take a picture.
If the "ERR 99" message only appears when one particular lens is
attached, then that lens should be examined by a service technician.
If you see the "ERR 99" with a different Canon lens attached, then the
camera should be serviced.
