Err99 on Canon EOS 400D with Canon lens.

Hi all,

This is my first post on the forum.

I've been getting this Err99 on my Canon 400D with Canon 18-55mm USM II lens.

I've tried everything I could but I still get this error.

1. Successfully updated firmware following instructions from the Canon page -

http://web.canon.jp/imaging/eosdigital3/e4kr3_firmware-e.html

2. Cleaned the contact points on the camera as well as the lens.

3. Did a 5 minute power cycle by removing both the batteries (main battery and the button cell for Date/time) and the CF card.

4. With the batteries removed, I turned the camera switch on for 3-5 minutes to clear the memory.

5. Cleaned the sensor using the camera's in-built cleaning feature.

Unfortunately I've tried everything on my EOS 400D but I still get the Err99 every few shots.

Could it be a problem with the lens or is my camera a lost cause?

I've nearly given up on my camera. Any help will be highly appreciated

- Arya
