this is going to sound weird so please bear with me
I have a T4i. Have used it for close to 2 years without any major problem on the still side or the video side
Was shooting a play tonight using video. After 1 minute of filming the screen went black
I took out the battery and put it back in
The screen, when I shift to using to LCD screen for video or live view shows a rainbow like series of colors. I can't get it to film anything with the rainbow on the screen. I have to take the battery out
To attempt to cure this I updated the firmware - no change. I did a low level reformat of TWO cards. No change. I replaced the battery with a second battery - no change.
I have read on Canon forums that this happens but the firmware was supposed to fix it.
I am stumped and now i have an expensive brick instead of a camera.
Can anyone suggest what I should do?
Thanks
Mark
