Hello all,
I haven't been on this forum for a while and would like to start with a problem I'm having with a newly acquired vintage Canon 20D. This camera arrived the other day looking like brand new, that's where it ends. Placed a fresh battery and CF card in and right off the bat up pops the dreaded Err CF message. I've attempted to format my card (SanDisk 2GB) but to no avail. Checked the pins, all looked straight. Changed lenses and even tried taking both batteries out and putting them back after a reasonable amount of time. I even said a prayer, nothing worked. I'm hoping someone can give me something new that I haven't thought of. Hate to have to go the professional route if I can help it. I do have quite a few other cameras, including many EOS film type. Looking forward to hearing from you, and hoping to hear some promising news.
