I have a Canon Power Shot A550 7.1 Mega Pixels I JUST got it a couple of
days ago. Have not really had opportunity to use it yet. But now when I
turn it on it LCD does not display. I will get the flash symble and all
the rest around the edge but no image on the screen, I can also use the
menu with no problem. I have to take pictures on manual in order for
them to turn out cause I do not get that image. But on once I take a
picture the picture I just took will show up on the screen, so I am able
to delete it or what not and see what I took. I have no idea what is
going on here. I would like to be able to fix it without having to take
it back to the store and return it as they will charge me a 20%
restocking fee. So if anybody knows anything on how to fix this problem
it would be a great help.

Ignore this post everybody, I got it working. I called the company, and
now I feel like a heal!

Hehe I have the same cam, but older version. Excellent!

It is a great camera, I think I hope Once I figure out everything about
it and am able to take pictures with it...lol

such an expert I didn't even realize it had a sepia filter on it until
you mentioned it one day....
