Photos NOT OK to edit
Hello everybody. got my camera out this morning all ready to shoot only to discover that on my first shot my shutter got stuck halfway closed. I brought it into blacks and they said it may just need cleaning... i would have brought it the henrys but they were closed when i got to it. Im currently in school for photography and a camera is kinda important (just a little).

So mostly does anyone here know something i could try before getting it sent off to canon for cleaning/repair? 3 months past warrantee:grumpy:

Any help would be great.

It is a Canon XS or 1000D
 
Camera shutters are pretty delicate mechanisms. Unless you know what you are doing, let a qualified shop address the problem.

However, it sounds like you need a new shutter, about $250.
 
ya. i took it in and they will want it for 6 weeks. I need my camera before that so i had to end up getting a new one. I will use my xs as a backup when i get if fixed.
