Re: Faulty 600D

Thanks both of you. Digirame, I don't think it is the shutter although can't be 100% sure. It does sound and feel like it's working correctly. It seems to be just the writing of the file that's wrong. When I first got the camera it was recording some pictures OK and the fault was supposedly just when using video, but within a few test shots it became more and more apparent until it stopped working completely. Karl, as above, I have tried different cards and no card, also different lenses and batteries.

My plan at the moment is to get another faulty camera and have a go at changing motherboards. I have no great need to get the 600d working (have plenty of other gear) but like the idea of using the flipout screen. And now the challenge of making it work again.

With that in mind, my next question would be whether any other models have the same motherboard or whether I need to wait for a 600d opportunity.

Thanks
