Well, this is weird....

The LCD monitor on my A630 stopped working in the middle of shooting. It shows the function display but there is no image. It works fine in replay/review mode, but in shooting mode it only works in the Custom setting.

It's my favorite camera so I'm wondering whether I'm facing a small repair or a major overhaul.

One additional note. After making an exposure in any mode, the Review comes on for the specified number of seconds as it is supposed to. It is only during shooting mode that the monitor doesn't work.

Problem solved. It appears that the "Display" can be turned off in each shooting mode without effecting other modes. It was on in Custom mode, but I must have accidentally turned it off in Program mode by pushing the button. All's well.
