Re: Maxxum 650si Won’t Turn On

This sometimes comes up .

On the assumption the camera isn't faulty , it's sometimes the battery it doesn't like .

Are you putting it directly in the camera or do you have a vertical grip fitted ?

Have you cleaned the contacts in the battery chamber ?

Use the end of a pencil with an eraser on .

Where this issues come up before it's turned out that the battery was the problem .

Although new the camera wouldn't come to life .

Try a different brands battery and see how that goes . What brand were you using ?

.

If the camera does turn out to be faulty , you can buy these cameras for about $30 , so a replacement is the usual remedy .
