Hi,
I own an Canon EOS 40d with the dreaded Err 99 message. My camera works fine for approximately 5 or 6 shots, then I get the Err 99 message. In addition, the message tells me to power down and turn the camera back on. Upon following the instructions, the camera is fine for another 5 or 6 shots. I've tried cleaning the contacts, changing batteries and CF cards and lenses, but recycling seems to be the only thing that works. Just wondering if this might be an indication of more serious problems coming? This camera was purchased used, and I'm not sure of how many shutter activations it has. Overall, the cosmetic condition is excellent, and it takes great photos. I'd appreciate your thoughts.
Thank you,
Mike
