Hi,
Just picked up a Canon Elan 7n with an interesting problem. Seems to function on all modes as it should until I load a film cartridge in it. The film will advance and then all functions cease. The shutter won't fire and the screen goes blank with the exception of a flashing empty battery symbol or sometimes a film cartridge image appears. When the cartridge is removed all settings including full battery image reappear and the shutter operates again. The body is very clean, it looks almost brand new. No sign of physical damage at all. I'm using brand new 123 batteries. Hoping someone has an idea what the problem might be.
